HelpRe: Aurora or Aurelia?
in reply to a message by delphine
Both names are gorgeous, but I tend to like Aurelia more.
I fear the male nn Rory from Aurora. As a general rule I'm neutral on established male nns for girls, ex: Georgia --> nn Georgie, Miranda --> Randi. It's just that Rory is relatively new to most parents these days, here in the U.S. I don't want it solidifying in their minds that Rory is a girl's name. Does that make sense?
How are you pronouncing Aurelia? I prefer "o-RAY-lee-uh," but "o-REE-lee-uh" is nice too.
