Ourania / Aurania

I used [name]Ourania[/name] on a character, but I think I am loving this name! What do you think? [name]Do[/name] you prefer [name]Ourania[/name] or Aurania? And what middle names would you pair it with? I am loving [name]Ourania[/name] [name]Jasmine[/name] for a future daughter. Nicknames would be [name]Ora[/name] (my great-grandmother’s name)/[name]Aura[/name] or Rain or Nia.

reminds me of aurelia… I prefer it with the A…it’s not really my style but I can see its appeal and [name]Aura[/name] is a cute nn!

[name]Ourania[/name] is a variation of [name]Urania[/name], one of the Muses in Greek mythology. She was the muse of astronomy. I prefer the O version because I’ve come across it several times reading about mythology.

I prefer [name]Ourania[/name] to Aurania (written) but I think it’s pronounced like [name]Urania[/name]. Not at all intuitive pronunciation. [name]Ottilie[/name] set me straight about it a while back.

No to [name]Ourania[/name] or Aurania, it’s so close to urine.
[name]Rania[/name] is better.

These names are nms. I agree with @noha - they remind me of the human body. Sorry!
