Capri?

What do you think of this name for a girl? It would be after the Italian city (where we got married) I was thinking of maybe using it as a middle name? So it would be Aurora Capri. I was going to call her Aurora Violet but now I can’t decide😂. Do you think it sounds strange because of Capri Sun the drink?

First thing they came to my mind was the kids drink.

I was going to say it's pants Grin

But it's fine as a middle name

Capri sun.
Capri length leggings.

I appreciate its after a city, but it looks unfinished as a human name to me.

Sun.
Pants.
No.

To make it work you’d need to pronounce Aurora Italian style, so Ow-rora. But then I suppose it would depend on how you pronounce Capri.

Capri sun drink!
Capri ghia ( Del Boys car for Raquel)
Not the best choice name tbh.

I wouldn't link it to Capri Sun as I would pronounce it differently. As a middle name no one will ever know what it is so go for it if you like it.

Good as a middle name and nice that you have a link to the place.
Just don’t put it with first name Isla Wink

It made me think of leggings. But actually, I quite like it as a.middle name

It's very footballers wives but middle names really don't matter. Nobody knows anyone elses anyway

It goes well with Aurora but it's think of the old 80s Ford Capri rather than the drinkGrin.
Does sound very pretty though.
