"Aurore" and "aube" are the two French word for "dawn", but only "Aurore" is used as a first name.

Aurore Gagnon was a young girl from Québec who died from abuse at the hands of her parents, particularly her stepmother, in 1920. The case involving her death greatly affected Québecois history.

Hideous.

Aurore Dudevant was the real name of George Sand. She was a novelist and lover of the great composer Chopin. She wore men's clothes, smoked cigars, and refused to be barred from places that most women were normally not permitted in her day. A very fiesty woman I admire, though I prefer the English version of her name, Aurora.

Pretty sound and imagery.

I like it much more than Aurora. It rolls off the tongue better and it's not as common.

I don't like Aurora, but this is a pretty variant.

In French translations of Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey", the epithet accompanying the goddess of dawn is "l'Aurore aux doigts de rose", "the rosy-fingered Dawn".
The Greek version of her name is Eôs.
