Aurla?

[harrywho]

Any thoughts on Aurla?

How do you pronounce it? Is it a male, female, or unisex name? I’ve never heard it before.

Aurelia?

Pronounced Orla?

It's an alternative spelling for orla, I'm not convinced at all. Actually prefer orlaith but orla is nice too.

I think it may get misheard for Órla. Is it pronounced the same way? Like OR-la?

So, if that would bother you I would avoid. I do love the name Órla though so love the sound of it. The spelling jars a bit in my head, but only as I know the Irish name.

It’s an absolutely terrible “alternative” spelling.

my first question is does it have clear origin? is it foreign?
my second question is are you sure it's not supposed to be Aurora said by someone who struggles with R's?

I don't like it, but that's because I don't properly say my R's.

How about Órlaith or Orlagh? If you want an alternative spelling.

oh, haven't seen other posts, sorry about comment. Yeah, Orla is just better

The R thing. Will be Awh-Ler in some places regardless of Aurla or Orla.

This.

Awful. Why not just use Orla? Wacky spellings are just cruel to your child.

Where did that spelling come from as an alternative to Orla?

The child then adult will be spelling this out repeatedly for ever and ever.

Really not good.

Looks like some sort of ear issue written like that. Orla is lovely though

Orla? No Aurla. How do you spell that? AURLA. Ah, like Orla but with an Au?

If you’re going to use a traditional Irish name, or a traditional name from any other culture, you should spell it correctly. It’s disrespectful to make up your own spelling.

The aur spelling of or is surely forever linked with dinosaurs??!!

Atrocious

Whose alternative?!
Did you make it up?

Why the need for an alternative?

Orla or Orlaith.

It looks like you’ve tried to make an anagram of Laura into a contrived new name. Orla much nicer

I really wouldn't use that as an Irish of name. In fact, I could imagine a comedian or media commentator making fun of it.

It awful
