Aurora is forerunner for our next girl…I’m Revisiting my favourite Aurora combos after a break and trying to narrow down my list . Would love to hear your thoughts. What are your favourite 3 from the list below and your least favourite. List is quite random…Kate, Seraphine, Mirabel & Luz have family significance. Also, my daughters middle is Valentine pronounced like the holiday. I mention this as it may influence your choice… I’m very drawn to ‘ine’ endings. So another question: cute to have matchy endings in the middle or too much?! List is as follows:
It’s definitely not too much to have two middles with the same ending! [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] and [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Leontine[/name_f] are my favourites:) [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f] is very nice too. On paper I like [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] as well, but I find it tricky to say.
I feel like [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] already has 2 R syllables, so the middle shouldn’t have any. (That’s my personal taste, though :)) It would be cute for them to have matching middles. So my favourite :
I don’t think it’s cute or not to have matchy middles. They rarely get used so it doesn’t really matter. My top 3 are:
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] – [name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] and it goes so nicely with [name_f]Aurora[/name_f].
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Leontine[/name_f] – [name_f]LOVE[/name_f] [name_f]Leontine[/name_f]. Very fierce but pretty and it spices up [name_f]Aurora[/name_f].
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] – This is just sweet. It’s pretty and it flows nicely.
My least favorite:
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Sunshine[/name_f] – Too sort of tacky. [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] being a sky thing and [name_f]Sunshine[/name_f] being a sky thing
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] – Same here. Sort of tacky. Like a scarlet aurora
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] – Same here. [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] is a celestial thing
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u] – I just hate [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u] on a girl but in general the image of fire with the aurora is weird to me
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_m]Cymbeline[/name_m] – I think of [name_m]Cymbeline[/name_m] as a boys name as it is in [name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m] and it means “sun lord” so it gets sort of meh with [name_f]Aurora[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Luz[/name_f] – [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] light? I know it’s family significance but still…
Other thoughts:
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f] – even though [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f] is a star you don’t immediately think star so it doesn’t feel tacky to me
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] – even though [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] is a fiery name, it’s not overtly fiery so it doesn’t feel tacky to me
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Mirabel[/name_f] – this is sweet
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] – this is nice and sounds nice
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] is probably my favourite. I think [name_f]Leontine[/name_f] and [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] are wrestling for second.
Thanks guys: my top 5 at this point in time are probably
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Leontine[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f]
&
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_m]Cymbeline[/name_m] (so charmed by this name but weary as it is a boys name!)
Good to see that many of you also gave those 5 a nod!!
[name_f]Love[/name_f] suggestion of [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Lucine[/name_f] too!
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] is my favorite, although I’m also particularly attached to [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f]. [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] and [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_m]Pheonix[/name_m] also have a good ring to them, and [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] is very pretty
LEAST [name_m]FAVORITE[/name_m]: [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] - I just never liked [name_f]Kate[/name_f] or [name_f]Katie[/name_f], and it seems odd next to your other picks, which are are more on the uncommon side.
