Which way around do people think sounds the nicest? We are settled on these two names and love them both equally. Our surname begins with E.
Thanks :)

Love them both, not sure how either is bland lol

Aurelia just had the edge for me so Aurelia Willow E

AW flows best in my humble opinion if you really do like them both the same. Not that I think it matters how they flow. Which one do you most want to be saying on a daily basis? Or hollering when you want her to come in from playing out, etc?
(Do parents still holler, or do you message them now? Showing my age 🤣)

Aurelia willow

I think it's a mouthful together.

I much prefer Willow so I'd use that as a first name.

It's an awful lot of vowel-y ell-y sounds. Aurelia Willow is better but it's all a bit mushy sounding when run together!

Aurelia willow runs better but choose the first name you like best

Dull, MN generic name.

ofwarren · 17/07/2022 17:43

Willow as the first name.

Viviennemary · 17/07/2022 17:27

I dont think those two names go together. I don't dislike either name. But together just no. Still up to you in the end

blueswans · 17/07/2022 17:25

Aurelia Willow for me :)

pinklavenders · 17/07/2022 17:15

Middle names are never used. Choose the first name you prefer.
