Aurora is nice, but Rainbow Aurora Rotella is horrible.

I thought a little too hard about this name. I said it aloud and it makes me giggle. Rain Boaroararoh Tella. Rain Boh-oh-roh-rah-roh Tella. Could there possibly be a worse context for Aurora?Rainbow isn't so bad, it's quirky ... but with Rotella, for heavensake. She wanted to use the name Rainbow so bad that she didn't think. That's the only explanation I can come up with.

I actually don’t mind Rainbow as a first name and I love Aurora, but not together and especially not with the last name Rotella.

I don't like Rotella, it sounds like a disease (similar to rubella), but I guess it's their surname and they can't do much about it.I love Rain. Rainbow is a little much but she can go by Rain or Rainie and it does have a nice image. Aurora is nice. I think Rainbow Aurora is kind of cool, even though I wouldn't use it. Rainbow Rotella on the other hand...Well, I guess nothing sounds great with that surname.

Gag. Just plain dumb. And as others have said, the number of R's in the name make it difficult to say. It sounds angry, like a dog barking or something.

......okaaayyy then. Rainbow? RAINBOW? I was so hoping she'd have some nice story about rainbows and their significance to her and her pregnancy...but no. I read the article and the reason behind the name was not satisfactory to me. I don't even like Aurora. Terrible.

Sounds dumb. Plus, I used to watch that show (shame) and I HATED her.

Is Rotella the last name? Because Rainbow Rotella sounds like multicolored pasta salad.

I thought of rainbow rotini too.

It really does!

HA! That's exactly what I thought.

even putting that aside...It really sounds like something a writer would come up with if they were trying to do "What would a woman who made her fortune by sleeping with a very old, very rich man name her daughter?:
Rainbow Aurora sounds like she got hit on the head and saw all kinds of flashing colored lights.

I have to admit that I actually like Rainbow! That said, it's going to sound a bit silly on someone over the age of 6! Too many r's in the name and just too much of a mouthful imo.

I don't care for Rainbow personally. At least she didn't spell it Reignbeau, I've seen that before. Aurora is nice.HOWEVER, Rainbow Rotella sounds like a pasta.

I would have preferred to see Aurora Rainbow Rotella, although the double R's don't work very well in this situation. I think it is interesting (and a bit too much for my style) that they are both sky related.Edit: I have said this name out loud a few times... that is a lot of R's. I find Aurora difficult enough to say with the two R's (I have a problem with them, I admit it!), but all together... wow.

I find it hard to say too. Sounds like a drunk person saying "rawr!" Okay maybe that was harsh, no offence to anyone who likes or bears the name. I actually went to elementary school with a girl name Aurora and I don't remember anyone mispronouncing her name, which I find surprising.

Aurora is difficult for me, too. When I say it, I sound like Scooby Doo.

I'm fairly certain I go "Ahrrrr-ah", and then wonder if I should say "Ohrrr-ah".
