A few weeks ago, I pitched the name Aurora to my husband and he actually didn't hate it. I think it's a beautiful name, not to mention I like the idea of having Rory as a nickname because it means "Red king" which has to do with my father-in-law.

The other day he mentioned that he likes the sound of Rory Ann for a first and middle set. I like it as well, and of course am THRILLED that I finally received an opinion from him (It's been quite a battle).

Rory Ann is definitely staying on the table, but I'm still considering other options. I like the idea of Aurora nn Rory because then when she's older SHE can choose what she goes by in case she finds one of them too pretentious or childish or what-have-you.

Do you think Aurora Ann is too much with all the "A"s? The last name will be King, if that makes any difference. Aurora Ann King. Rory Ann King. Even if you don't care for either of the names, WDYT as far as pronunciation goes?

Edit: Thanks everyone, for your opinions! I really appreciate it. :)

I really like Aurora Ann. I think it's a good solid name and she'll have plenty of nickname options as she grows. It's a bit hard to say as a child so I'd just remember that, but otherwise, I really like it. Rory sounds too short, for some reason. Rory Ann sounds a little like Raggedy Ann.
