We have one we really like for a girl, was wondering on the reaction it gets:

"Aureilla Neuveau"

Thoughts?

I don't think anybody reading those names will pronounce them like you just explained is your intention. I'd have got 'Or-eel-ya Nuh-voe" for example.

On the whole I dislike made up names as they always end up sounding a bit too cut-price pornstar, but each to their own. My own real name is pretty unusual, albeit old and Gaelic, so I can't really criticise too much...
