Aurelia & Amelia - HELP

Girl Names
1

So I have questions about both of these names - I just didn’t want to double post :smiley:

  1. Help me pick a nature-y middle name for [name]Aurelia[/name]: [name]Aurelia[/name] [name]Meadow[/name] or [name]Aurelia[/name] [name]Willow[/name]? Any other suggestions for names with that same style?

  2. [name]How[/name] many [name]Amelia[/name]'s do you know? I love this name, and it seems to be popular on the SSA list, yet I don’t anyone named [name]Amelia[/name].

  3. And lastly, do you prefer [name]Aurelia[/name] or [name]Amelia[/name], and why? I go back on forth between aw-REL-ee-uh and aw-RAIL-ee-uh for the first name, if that makes a difference.

Thanks :wink:

  1. I’d have to go with [name]Aurelia[/name] [name]Meadow[/name]. I love [name]Willow[/name] but I think with [name]Aurelia[/name], there’s too many l’s.

  2. I only know one [name]Amelia[/name] and that’s my DD :slight_smile:

  3. Obviously, I love [name]Amelia[/name] because it’s my daughter’s name. I love it because it’s familiar but not common (at least around here.) It’s simple and sweet. Most people use her nickname which is [name]Mia[/name] which is more popular but we still don’t know any around here. Really only DH and close family call her [name]Amelia[/name].

I like both names. I pronounce [name]Aurelia[/name] the Italian way, Ow-rayl-ya. I’ve only known one [name]Amelia[/name], and she must be about sixteen now. I actually prefer [name]Amalie[/name] or [name]Amalia[/name] to [name]Amelia[/name], but I think I just like all the variations of the name, from [name]Emily[/name] to [name]Emilia[/name] to [name]Amalie[/name], etc.

I only know one [name]Amelia[/name], and she goes by [name]Milly[/name]. [name]Both[/name] [name]Amelia[/name] and [name]Aurelia[/name] are lovely - although I’m not sure which pronunciation I like.

  1. [name]Aurelia[/name] [name]Willow[/name]

  2. My older daughter’s name is [name]Amelia[/name] and we call her [name]Mia[/name]. It’s gotten incredibly popular in my area ([name]Colorado[/name]). I know six others, sadly, including one in our neighborhood and two at her school (one is spelled [name]Emelia[/name], though). I just noticed that a recently found on Facebook a high school friend with an [name]Amelia[/name]. My daughter also had an [name]Amelie[/name] in her preschool class.

  3. I prefer [name]Amelia[/name], but sometimes I wish I went with [name]Cecilia[/name] because of the immense popularity of [name]Amelia[/name]. [name]Aurelia[/name] is pretty and a lot less common, if that’s what you’re looking for.
