Lydia, Aurora or Bella?

Lydia was our original name (that I liked and convinced DH of)but I went off it, but have gone back to it a little now ..

then we decided together on Aurora and I made the stupid mistake of telling my mum who did the 'oh...ermmm... thats nice' thing

We were planning on calling her Rorie most of the time, not Aurora constantly.

And I love Bella. But DH needs convincing!

Out of the 3 what would you say?

Aurora is a bit too "try hard" I think. Bella and Lydia are both lovely, although I think Lydia is getting increasingly popular, if that bothers you. I wanted dd to be Bella - but she was having none of it, once old enough to articulate her preferences!

Not Aurora.

Aurelia or Eleanor are similar(ish). Ahh these would have been our choices for a girl... My mother would have had a fit! I like Lydia, especially the Italian pronunciation (Lee-deeah).
