People are divided on my Disney-inspired baby names – some say they ‘love it’ while others call it ‘awful’

A WOMAN'S baby name choice left everyone thinking of the same Disney movie.

However, some people pointed out that the princess-inspired name may lead to bullying.

In a post on Mumsnet, the expectant mum asked her fellow users for their thoughts on her pick.

She revealed the traditional Latin name she wanted to give her daughter.

The pregnant woman had decided on the name Aurora, which is the Latin word for "dawn."

"There's something drawing me to it. And it's not my usual style," the soon-to-be mum explained.

Aurora is the name of a Roman goddess who was in charge of announcing the sunrise each day.

However, Mumsnet users pointed out the most common association with the name.

"It’s a bit Disney Princess if I’m perfectly honest," wrote one person.

"It's awful. You aren't raising a Disney princess," said another reader.

"It’s ok, just a bit princess-y to me and I’m not keen on Rory for short," commented a third parent.

"I don't like it, the fact it sounds like a yawn, and it's a Disney princess, I'd avoid Ariel or Elsa for same reason," said another commenter.

"Aurora is a great name for a little girl but I wouldn’t want to be an adult called that," wrote one reader.

Others pointed out another possible issue with the unique name for a child.

"I like it. But think about the many people who don't pronounce 'R' properly and will call her Ah-waw-wa?" said one person.

"'R' is hard for [young children] to say. They’ll be calling themselves ‘Au-wo-wa’ for years," commented another Mumsnet user.

"A bit tricky if your child is struggling saying 'R,' like many do. Ah-woah-wah," wrote one commenter.

Are Unique Baby Names Worth The Hassle?

Fabulous' Deputy Editor reveals the turmoil she faced with her own name while growing up.

When I was a child, all I wanted was one of those personalised keyrings with my name on it.

But no joy, the closest I could find was Rosie, Joseph (not great for a little girl) and Joanne.

Josie is short for Josephine, which is a French name, and I managed to reach my 20s without ever meeting anyone who shared it.

When I try to introduce myself to people, I get all sorts of random things - like Tracey and Stacey - which can be pretty annoying.

Although I have come into contact with a couple of Josies over the last year - there seems to be a few of us around my age - it’s still a much rarer name than most of my friends have.

On the whole I don’t mind it, at least it’s not rude or crazily spelt.

And it means I can get away with ‘doing a Cheryl’ and just referring to myself as Josie.

I’m getting married this year and some friends are shocked that I’m changing my surname, as it’s not seen as very cool or feminist to do so these days, but I explain to them that I’m not that attached to Griffiths as I’d always just say ‘hi it’s Josie’ when ringing a mate up.

I think it’s nice to be unique and I’ll definitely try and replicate this when naming my own kids.

It’s the rude names you’ve got to watch out for, so after nine years as a lifestyle journalist I’ll definitely be avoiding those.

Other people shared their issue with the sound of the name.

"Awful. Such an ugly sound," wrote one unimpressed reader.

"I’ve personally never liked it I’m afraid. I don’t like the 'ROARRR!' sound in it," pointed out another commenter.

Some Mumsnet users said they liked the name, encouraging the poster to go for it.

"I think it's very pretty! It's also a hugely popular name in Italy, not just a Disney princess!" pointed out one person.

"I love it. [It's] my mother-in-law's name and would have been my one of my children's name, if they had turned out to be a girl," said another reader.

"I like it! Rory for a nickname," suggested one parent.
