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. :)

Rory is my favourite boys name, and I love Aurora. Itreminds me of The Northern Lights and I love the Dark Materials books- as in I've read them about 10 times.

I think it's a bit gilmore girls, probably going to fall into some kind of trend trap but if you both like them then go for it.

Aurora King is beautiful.

I'd hate to see Rory as a full name on a girl, and Ann doesn't flow with Aurora at all.

I love Aurora Marianna King
