    Eunice

    Ok, so I'm not having a baby or anything, but saw this name today and thought, gee that's pretty.

    In the same article I also saw the name Aurelia, and thought that was lovely too.

    What do you think?

    DH's grandmother was Eunice and she was a real battle-axe ROFL so I would be put off using the name myself (not to mention MIL would disown us she didn't like her MIL at all) But it is a nice name. I have always liked Aurelia but it's a name I don't think I'd ever convince DH to have.

    My grandmother was a Eunice. She died before I was born, so I never met her, but my Dad always speaks of her fondly - so that makes me like the name .

    Aurelia is beautiful too.

    I like Aurelia - it's pretty. Personally I dont' like Eunice (even though I like most Bible names) because I had a sheep named Eunice the Ewe and that's all I can think of (word association) My DH has an Aunt whose name was Eunice but she hated it and changed it to Janice when she was an adult.

    I think its a nice name.

    Theres a name in Arabic that is pronounced similarly, but its for a boy. Yunus (sometimes spelt Yoonus) is the arabic version of the name Jonah. just thought i would let you know
