Aurora

[Spanishgreekenglishfamily]

Give it to me straight .... What are your thoughts?
Is it going to be hard to say? Spelling difficulties? Would my daughter hate me if I gave her this name?
There's something drawing me to it. And it's not my usual style. Would you say it's a modern name? Although it's after quite a historic concept?
Can be brutally honest!

I prefer Aurelia too. There is also the option of Aurielle if you prefer that.

awful

SO I've been thinking of this name a lot for my own daughter and my conclusion is I LOVE it written down, but said out loud, it's actually not that nice.

I don't think it's that great. But it could just be where I am - it's not a nice sounding word for a Yorkshire accent.

Aurora is Disney Princess and Alba is the budget Argos electronics line.

What on earth 🤣

I love it, we have one in our family and she's lovely and really suits her name

I know one Portuguese Aurora who must be 80 and is the most wonderful woman and one baby Aurora.

I love it as a name and dont think it needs shortening

I like Aurora. It makes me think of the character in Anne-Cath. Vestly's Aurora series, a little girl with a brother called Sokrates. Not keen on Alba - don't like the combination of the short name with a plosive, the sound is a bit in one's face.

No. Try araminta.

I love Aurora. So pretty and classic.

Prefer Areli ( not sure of spelling) , and yes I heard of it from that tiktok family

I love it. Roe for short. Like in the Hallmark series Aurora Teagarden

This thread has popped up for me again and honestly I can't overstate how ugly this name sounds bellowed in a broad Yorkshire accent. O-ROAAAR-RA O-ROAAAR-RA TIME FOR TEA. It's like they're lowing or something.

Wor wor wah. Not nice imo!

Exactly!
