[Opinions] Re: ORION - the spelling vs pronounciation?
Thanks for the thoughts, the babe has been without a name for two weeks, while we battled through ideas, so I really think we need to go fwd with it rather than use it as a middle name, as we are coming up short with any other ideas.I guess it may help that we plan to call him Ori everday (said Oree) this is the second most popular name in israel atm! However I think the best spelling alternatives are orien, aurien, or oryon! My husband likes oriyon, but I think this looks pretty wierd!

Ori's pretty cute! I think you could just leave the spelling be with Orion. At least you have a good reason for wanting it pronounced that way, which will help people remember. I have to agree that Oriyon looks rather strange :/ It sounds like you put the stress on the O, so yeah, if you do really want to change the spellling then maybe Orien or Aurien would be good. Either way, he's your cute little guy and he'll be just fine with the spelling you go with. Pick the one you love and that your gut tells you to go with.
