Help[Opinions] I prefer Aurian
in reply to a message by Cynyslende
Aurian is the heroine in a fantasy series by Maggie Furey, so I think of a girl when I see this name. Aurion might just as well be a boy's name.
- She said he made a racial slur!
- Racial? She is Swedish!
- Maybe he called her Meatball.
"I’ve given it a lot of thought, and I’ve decided to be spontaneous."

Yes, or Aurien
The -on ending inevitably seems masculine, while -an and -en inevitably seem female.
I would even go with Aurienne. It would not have to be pronounced ahr-ee-ENN, despite the florid suffix; it could still be AHR-ee-enn. After all, Adrienne is still pronounced AY-dree-en, not ay-dree-ENN, at least around my part of the globe.
