I just have this feeling that I am going to name my daughter, whenever I have her, Aurelia.  I love the name, obviously, but I'm kind of stuck on nickname name ideas.  What do you think?  I want something different other than Lia, while I like the name Leah, I just don't really want to call my daughter that.  I've also thought of Aure which I guess would be said Uh-real.  I was just wondering what you guys could come up with.

Oh whoops sorry I meant to be talking about nicknames. I say it Uh-rel-yuh or Uh-rel-ee-uh but I am sure there are other ways to say it.

aurelia is my absolute favorite name for a girl too

it's pronounced uh-ray-lia

i'm also confused as to what you are requesting
middle names or nick names?

If you're going by the original Latin, it's somewhere in between the pronunciation you've given and the one preferred by the OP. Almost like a short I in English... the same sound that "e" in Spanish usually denotes.

Here are some nn that came to mind if you're pronouncing it as Uh-rel-yuh:

Aury
Rely
Riley
Lia
Rory
Ella

If you're not pronouncing it that way, I guess the nns can still work though lol You can pretty much make up any nn that's close to it ;)
