Oui ou non?

I think I may have finally found the name for my little girl due late April/early May.

Quinn Aurelia [Trenholm]

I had a hard time finding a middle name that sounds good with Quinn and my last name but the more I say this, the more I like it - it actually gave me butterflies when I put the names together.

Thoughts/opinions?

The only female Quinn that springs to my mind is Quinn on Daria (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinn_Morgendorffer) — hardly a positive association.

To be honest, I'd go with Aurelia Quinn if only because people more frequently dislike their middle names than first, perhaps because first is more linked to their sense of identity, and with a love-or-hate-it name like Aurelia, I'd want my kid to love it instead of always hiding what the middle initial stands for. But Quinn is middle of the roadish enough that little Aurelia would probably be happy to share what the Q stands for, y'know? Besides, Aurelia Q. Trenholm has a sense of humor and quirk that Quinn A. Trenholm doesn't.

As far as Quinn being "stronger" than Aurelia, I just don't see it. Aurelia sounds kind of ass-kicking, in a good way, and Quinn... is nice enough.
