I’ve had moments where I’ve felt sure on a name and then it just doesn’t feel right. At the moment I’m stuck between Grace and Aurelia.
Her middle name will be Evelyn.

I would probably call baby Grace Gracie and I like the nickname Rae for Aurelia.

Thoughts please?

I like both roughly equally but agree you won't get the pronunciation issues with Grace. Not that it matters that much, but I think Grace Evelyn flows better than Aurelia Evelyn.

How about Aurelia as a second middle name? Grace Evelyn Aurelia Surname?

@IVflytrap I was thinking about this - Grace Evelyn Aurelia surname ... do you think it’s too much? Surname is short and one syllable

I don't think it's too much at all, especially if the surname is short, and as Grace is only one syllable. Lots of people have two middle names, and it can be quite nice to have something more elaborate in the middle if your first name is a bit more straightforward. Smile
