[name_f]Love[/name_f] both the names. Especially [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] - such a beautiful, unique name. Also love the meaning of [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] - Latin for golden one. Can’t imagine pronunciation being an issue on either name :razz:
I know somebody named [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f]. She has lots of issues with pronunciation even from family members.
My best friend is named [name_f]Emily[/name_f], and i often called her emilia/[name_m]Emilio[/name_m] in high school… But I always pronounced it how it was said in Spanish class, eh-meal-ee-o, with the stress on the second syllable. Only after reading it here did I ever hear it pronounced like [name_f]Emmy[/name_f]-leah. It’s mind boggling, hard to get myself to say it that way.
My daughter’s name is [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f]. We have started putting an accent mark over the e because it is nearly impossible to get the correct prn. uh-reel-ya is the most common. We also get a lot of people that think the name is made up when really it’s old. [name_m]Even[/name_m] though it can take some clarification, I don’t regret it and it fits her so well.
Me and my boyfriend [name_f]LOVE[/name_f] this name so it’s on our future list, but since you have a little [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f], mind giving some insight into how it’s actually supposed to be pronounced? I just wanna make sure I got it right 
Well, as with any name, there is usually variation among different languages. We pronounce it like we pronounce Australia but without the st! Au-[name_u]RAY[/name_u]-[name_u]Lee[/name_u]-Uh. The A is such a slight sound, it could easily be uh/aw/au/o. So when spoken, be prepared for those options if the person you’re saying it to is trying to spell it (: Another concern is “lia” not being [name_u]Lee[/name_u]-uh but a very rushed “lya.” We call her Rayley a lot to really stress that its Au-[name_u]RAY[/name_u]-[name_u]Lee[/name_u]-Uh and not Au-RAIL-Yuh. But if you like the second better, it’s really up to you! I wouldn’t consider it wrong on principle, just wrong for us!
