Aurora Rainbow,

Is it me, or is that a serious bunch of awr-awr sounds?

I like Aurora, it's the word for 'sunrise' in italian (and Alba, also a name, is 'dawn').
But here it's pronounced Ah-oo-RAW-rah. And our 'r's don't roll, so it's nice and smooth.

I, too, am a fan of rainbows, but if I were to include it in a kid's name, I'd go for a more subtle way, for example finding a name that has it in its meaning.

WDYT?

Rainbow's too much.

I've always liked Aurora, though.

Aurora is hard for me to pronounce because your lips don't really close during it.

Love Aurora, don't like Rainbow at all. They don't sound good together.

I don't really like either name. Aurora's hard to say... I think the constant R sound makes the name sound all slurred.

I love Aurora, but I don't like Rainbow at all. I agree with your idea of using a name that means it, or somehow connotes it.
