I remember hearing this name when I was learning French and thinking I’ve found my favourite ever name... thought it was beautiful... then realised it’s pretty much orally in English so a no go. Has anyone else had the wind similarly knocked clean out of their sails by falling head over heels in love with a name only to have the crushing realisation it actually doesn’t work at all.

I liked Amaris when I saw it written down. Then I practised saying it in sentences and realised it often came out as “amorous”.

I loved Soraya. Beautiful name. I emailed it to a friend who replied “sounds like Psoriasis”. That was the end of that.

I’m not keen on Aurelia, and this was years ago btw. My taste has changed a lot since then and I’ve got a million other girls names I absolutely love... was more wondering if anyone’s had similar experiences with loving something only to realise it’s a total no go.
