Sister for Aurora?

[emerierose]

We have a dd Aurora and now are due a new baby girl in February. I am having such a hard time picking a name this time around. I'm not sure what really matches the feel of Aurora.

Some on our list are
Elara
Luna
Violet
Aster or Astri

What are your suggestions?

I really like Violet with Aurora. Luna is commonly used as a pet name at the moment, my cat is called Luna and I know several people with dogs called it.
I think the other names clash with Aurora as they are too similar. All lovely though!

Luna.

My friend has Aurora, Arcadia and Astrid. I always think they sound like a fleet of cruise ships..

I like Isabella with Aurora, even though that's not on your list.

India
Savannah
Cassia
Ophelia
Cassandra
Marina
Delphine
Ottilie

I like violet and Astrid

Annaliese - being discussed on another thread - also sounds nice.

Beatrix
Cynthia
Lyra
Selene
Phoebe
Thalia
Eden
Harmony
Eloise
Estelle

I love Aurora (but had boys).

Aster or Astrid would be my favourite. Or even Stella.

Luna and Astri with Aurora give me space vibes, feels a bit themey

I know an India and Aurora pair and think they balance well

I like Luna! Aurora and

Eloise
Marybeth
Lucia
Gwen
Nerissa
Helena
Cordelia
Felicity
Georgina
Juliet
Cecily

I really like Violet from your list.

If the names on your list, Violet definitely goes best. I’d avoid Elara as it doesn’t quite flow with Aurora.

The Aurora I know has a sister Hermione.

How about:

Seraphina
Lucinda
Gabriella
Rosalie

The first name that came to mind was Astrid.

Or
Adrianna
Skye
Penelope
Honor
Letitia

Borealis, or bo for short.

Xanthie and Elodie come to mind

Calista
Evangeline
Felicity
Isla
Carina
Emmeline
Imogen
Madeleine
Zinnia

Another vote for Borealis. Or Borealia perhaps.

Esme
Seren
Naomi
Nola

Fjord?

Definitely not Borealis, it's the name of a big plastics company. 🤔

why do people think this is attractive as a name?

Amelia
Aurelia
Athena
Anastasia
Amara
Aria
Arianna
Allegra
Acacia
Alicia
Ayliah
Andromeda
Adelaide
Adora
Akayla
Aqina
Aphra
Astra
Afton
Azara
Azalea
Azaria
Asha
Aisha
Alia
Astor
Austen
Ailish
Aisling
Ailidh
Isla
Iona
Gaia
Tara
Tana
Tamara
Tatiana
Olga
Elisa
Eliza
Hannah
Lucia
Marina
Nerissa
Nova
Astrid
Portia
Allie
Miranda
Diana
Minerva
Cassandra
Pandora
Eartha
Wanda
Zandra

I really like Violet from your list.

Personal choice but I would rule out all names that also end with "A". Of your list that would leave Violet. It is totally your decision though, happy picking!

@emerierose the Aurora I know of has a sister called Sapphire if that helps at all?

Elara - too similar sounding with Aurora

Luna - As many a pp have mentioned it’s used a lot for pets

Violet - I know it’s popular on here but I’m just not keen and I don’t feel it’s the same kind of name as Aurora but that might just be a preference etc!

Aster or Astri - I think Astrid is beautiful but I just don’t like the ‘ass’ sound in either of the 3 names so I’d never use it because kids can be cruel.
