Reverie?

What do you think of this name? Heard it on a list and thought it was beautiful but is it too out there? Bare in mind I have a Durham accent but I think it sounds fine? We’re now going between this and Aurora. Which one do you prefer?

Referee? A red card from me.

What about everly? Aurora is nice, I know of two. If you like it, use it Smile

Lovely word but I agree with other posters; it might sound like you don't realise that reverie is a word, not a name. It'd be a bit like calling your daughter 'Dreamlike' or 'Dejavu'!

Aurora is gorgeous, though.

I know the chances are low, and the same could apply to a number of other names, but my immediate thought was - what if she can't pronounce her 'r's?

It’s a lovely word, but a silly name.

If, indeed, it is a name.

Ha, good point. If this were my nearly 3yo he would still be pronouncing his own name "Wev-wee" or more likely just "Wev".
