I have been liking the name [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f] [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] or [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f] for my daughter but just realized this morning thanks to Google that [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn’s mother was named [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f] I’m sure most people think of [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn right away when they hear the name [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] (which I’m fine with!) but is [name_f]Ella[/name_f] June/Audrey too on the nose given [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn’s mom’s name was also [name_f]Ella[/name_f]? I don’t want people to think I’m like a super fan or something lol. [name_m]Or[/name_m] am I reaching here?

I swear there’s something up with every name combination I come up with!
I do think of [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn when I hear the name [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] (not like it’s the only association, just one of the main ones.) I didn’t know her mom’s name was [name_f]Ella[/name_f]. I wouldn’t worry about it. Only big Hepburn fans will see the connection, and middle names aren’t usually used a lot in everyday life.
I don’t know any celebrity’s mother’s name [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]Ella[/name_f] and [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] are both very popular names, I doubt anyone would assume this was a very niche [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn mention instead of someone just using two names that are in at the moment!
I think you’re overthinking this element. They’re both familiar enough names that they don’t feel solely tied to [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn and her mother [name_f][/name_f]- and tbh, I wouldn’t have known it was her mother’s name if I hadn’t read this.
I don’t think the connection is too strong. I would never have known [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn’s mother’s name if you hadn’t mentioned it, and I doubt most other people would have either. And I don’t think of [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn immediately when I hear [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] either – if you asked me what [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] made me think of, yes I’d say Hepburn, but if I just met a girl named [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn wouldn’t come to mind (nor would any other specific person/association).

[name_f]Ella[/name_f] and [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] work wonderfully together!
Im pretty familiar with audrey hepburn, but I didnt know her moms name was [name_f]Ella[/name_f]. And tbh [name_f]Ella[/name_f] has been such a commonly used name throughout the years, that I dont think it would be a major connection even if they did know.
Feminist film history is one of my special interests, and the Audrey/Ella connection didn’t occur to me at all until I read your post. I highly, highly doubt that anyone will think of it, especially with [name_f]June[/name_f] in the combo! [name_f][/name_f] It’s not like naming her [name_f]Liza[/name_f] [name_f]Judy[/name_f] or something like that.
I had no clue [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn’s mother was named [name_f]Ella[/name_f], and I doubt the average person would. [name_f][/name_f] I think it’s fine! [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]Ella[/name_f] and [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] stylistically are such a great match.
I had no idea [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn’s mother was [name_f]Ella[/name_f], and I think it’s a nonissue. [name_f][/name_f] I have met enough Audreys of all ages in real life that my first thought isn’t the famous Hepburn. Honestly, names like [name_f]Marisa[/name_f] (Tomei) and [name_f]Angelina[/name_f] (Jolie) remind me more of their celebrity bearer than [name_f]Audrey[/name_f]!
Thanks everyone! The consensus on here is that this is a non-issue and not something to overthink. Yay! [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f] [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] and [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_f]June[/name_f] are still in the running
[name_f][/name_f] I’m sure most people think of [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn right away when they hear the name [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] (which I’m fine with!) but is [name_f]Ella[/name_f] June/Audrey too on the nose given [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] Hepburn’s mom’s name was also [name_f]Ella[/name_f]?
