Aurelia or Meredith

[Alisvolatpropiis]

I'm just curious, which of the two do you prefer?

Meredith, but they're both good names imho!

Aurelia

Aurelia - it's the most beautiful name in the whole world!

I prefer Meredith by far.

Meredith - would have been a definite contender if we didn't have a similar-ish surname.

Meredith. It's everything a name should be.

Don't like the "oral" sound of Aurelia.

How is Aurelia promounced? I love Meredith btw!

Meredith.

Don't like Aurelia at all.

I'm terrible at writing pronunciations but I guess I say Aurelia as Oreelya. Three syllables. Which seems to work where I live in terms of what I have heard others say.

I am aware it is one of those names which has various pronunciations, none of them strictly the right/wrong one.

Both lovely!

Use both, they go well together

I was thinking that Moher

They're the front runners for our baby girl, due in June. I say front runners, they're the only names we like in the 'would actually use and agree on' sense. My DH and I have very different tastes so I'm quite surprised that we've come to any agreement so early!

Meredith.

Meredith - Aurelia sounds like the bits round nipples!

How would you pronounce Meredith? The Welsh way, or the English way?
MerEDith?
MERedith?

It's usually a boy's name in Wales.

I love the name meredith! I think it works both as a 'pretty' young child name and as a grown up name. Beautiful.
Aurelia sounds like a disney princess to me. Nothing wrong with that of its your taste but wouldnt be my choice

If we had another baby Meredith would be my first choice for girls name xx

Meredith. Great name. I know one and she's lovely.

The one I know is mid 20's

I really like both of them. In fact they were in my short list for dd (who ended up as Romilly). My only troubles with them were the different pronunciations of Aurelia and that I prefer the shortening of Meredith (to Merry) to the full name I think.

Aurelia is pronounced Or-ray-leah

I love Aurelia with a Portuguese accent!

But Meredith is my favourite.

I think Aurelia is a beautiful name, isn't that the name of the girl that Colin Firth falls in love with in Love Actually?

Aurelia

Meredith

Very nearly my DDs name
