We are expecting a little girl in 2 weeks and need some advice. We have a daughter Cecilia Rose and we are thinking of naming the new baby Aurelia Violet, pronounced Au-Ray-Lia. Are Cecilia and Aurelia too similar or too cutesy together? We are not intending for them to rhyme. Other options we are considering are Josephine Lily or Madeleine Violet.

I think both Josephine and Madeleine might work better with Cecilia. It bothers me a little that they're both four syllables and end in the same way.

Here are some ideas anyway:
Cecilia and

Georgia
Phoebe
Emmeline
Daphne
Frances
Charlotte
Edith
Rosalind
Kathleen
Louisa
Helene
Isobel
Julianne
Eloise
Caroline
Abigail
Vivienne
Meredith
Francesca
Evelyn
Olive
Penelope
Adelaide
Bridget
Clara
Katherine
Margaret
Lorraine
Judith
Norah
Theodora
Amelie
Christianne
Florence
Tatiana
Juliet
Lucinda
Tabitha
Melinda
Seraphine
Nicolette
Helena
Antoinette
Margot
Viola

Both Josephine Lily and Madeleine Violet are great though.

I think Aurelia is lovely, but unfortunately too close to Cecilia (which I adore, by the way!). I think Josephine Lily and Madeline Violet are lovely. If you really want to use Aurelia, maybe use it in the middle spot? Violet Aurelia maybe?

 

Yaz had a lot of great suggestions.

Cecilia and Aurelia are definitely too similar, especially if you pronounce Aurelia (uh REEL ee ah). Josephine Lily and Madeleine Violet are both fabulous, though.

I love Aurelia, but if you want a similar name that doesn't ring to close to Cecilia maybe Aurora could work?

Aurora

Aurelia and Cecilia are too similar, especially since I can guarantee a lot of people will want to pronounce it "uh REEL ee ah." Aurora or Azalea, maybe?
