Aurelia Marigold

On the 1st of [name_f]October[/name_f], we welcomed our daughter [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f]. She weighed 4 lb 10 oz and is our miracle baby.

We chose [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] because of the golden meaning (and our daughter is fair as we expected), it’s timeless nature, and the fact that it wouldn’t be easily nicknamable, which is a consideration when you live in Australia! [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] is special because our daughter is born in spring, my great grandmother was called [name_f]Goldie[/name_f] all her life, and my favourite book as a little girl was [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] in Grandmother’s House by [name_u]Joyce[/name_u] [name_m]Lankester[/name_m] Brisley.

Many thanks to all the berries who encouraged us to keep [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] as the middle name, even though it doubles up on the gold meaning. We absolutely love her name, and the fact that we didn’t go for the ‘safe’ options that we had toyed with. I find other berries name choices very inspiring.

Congratulations Mama! What a beautiful name!
