Baby Names

Aurora

Hello! We are trying to come up with a girls name and DH's top choice is Aurora. I am not 100% sold but we can't seem to come up with anything that we better agree on. I like the idea of maybe using Rori as a nick name. Does that work do you think? Is Rori a natural enough nickname for Aurora or is that a stretch?
Also, we're having trouble settling on a middle name. It has to start with a J and can't be Jane or Janae. Any suggestions?
My labour has started so were starting to feel the pressure! At least we have a boy name figured out! :)

  • Thanks so much ladies for all your input! I really appreciate it. I was so apprehensive about a girl name and in the end, out came a boy by VBAC. :)
    We named him Clark Jeffrey. Jeffrey after his daddy. :)
    My husband liked that he didn't know any other Clark's and that Clark was also the brand name of a machine he likes. Haha.
    Thanks again!

  • Not a fan, mostly because I can't wrap my mouth around the Rs. And it makes me think Disney. Rory is a perfectly natural NN. DD had a girl in her swim class named Aurora, and her mom switched back and forth between Aurora and Rory constantly.

    MN options: Joy, Joyce, Jocelyn, Joan, Judith, Jasmine (WAY too Disney with Aurora though), Jill, Jillian

  • Aurora is my top pick for a girl's name, but DH is not a fan. I love the name and the nn Rori.
  • Aurora Janelle is lovely
  • I have trouble with Aurora. I do think it's a beautiful name. But...I think it sounds a bit heavy.  I also think it may be a bit difficult for a child to pronounce.  I think think Rori is a cute NN for it and necessary.
  • oh how funny - I just put Aurora nn Rory on my guilty pleasure list above! Then I came across this.

    I love it, the only reason it is on my GP list is it just really isn't my "style". But I love it, especially the nickname. I totally get that Rory is a male name - but I've never known one and I only think of Rory from Gilmore girls (it was a nn for her too). Plus I am not against boy nn's on girls.
  • Aannnnddd I just saw that you had a boy. I should probably read the whole post BEFORE I respond.

    Congratulations! Clark is a very nice name
  • Aurora Jean Aurora June Aurora Juniper Aurora Josephine

    OMG, Aurora Juniper or Aurora Josephine!!

    Rory is a totally natural nickname for Aurora.
