congratulations!! i love that name and was considering it but could not figure out exactly how to pronounce it! how do you say it? i love it. there is a wool shop/seller that have that name. down a country road i used to drive when my dtr wouldnt sleep and i couldnt take it anymore!! i had a boy anyway so it wouldnt have happened. i looked it up and i forget what the association is. but it was nice. literary?? i also considered Brhyer for a baby girl. it is an island off the coast of england but also the name of a person who used to hang out at Shakespeare and Co bookstore with all those famous ppl like hemingway and joyce etc. sorry to go on and on....i guess i am missing adult conversation

[rryman]

[PrincessCass]

DH & I found the name in a movie. We adore the movie (Love Actually) and the name. A friend of mine from Brazil knew the name because it's Portuguese. She pronounced it for me, "Or-Ale-ee-uh." (Not too good at spelling pronunciation.) If it's spoken quickly, it kind of rhymes with Vidalia.

DH & I haven't settled on a middle name yet...

Welcome Aurelia!

[Galatea]

Congratulations! Finally!

I was going to suggest Sky for a middle name 'cause I like the one syllable sound with Aurelia...but Mae is so cute, too!

(oh, and beautiful baby! you look great too mama...I like the pic of your dh trying to read the directions :LOL )
