Okay, well - I technically suck. Evidently my b/f and I are having some crossed wires. I thought the name we wanted was pronounced

"Ah ree ella"

Where as he thought it'd be pronounced

"Ah rail lee ah"

So I like his pronunciation better. We could call her "Railey" for short. Just wondering which pronunciation was preferred here. LoL - I like that his version doesn't bring connotations of nipples to mind. ;0)

We'd spell it Aureillea as opposed to Aureilla. I do understand that I'd be dooming my child to a lifetime of having to spell and explain her name - but we think that's a better course of life than to name her "June" lol. Besides I know a Noelle who constantly has to correct people on how to say her name, so there are no guarantees that people will always say your name right.

Oh, and we decided we would spell Nouveau as the word for "new" and not as Neuveau as in the last name of the actress we first got the name from.

It's a lot of vowels, that's for sure. Perhaps Aureilea?
I don't know...
