I want to use the same name for two of my kids, they’re a boy and girl so it might seem odd but it’s the only one I like

A MUM was desperate to use her favourite name for her baby girl but wasn't sure if she could after using an adapted version on her older son.

The mother absolutely adored the name Aurora and always intended to use the name and the nickname Rory for her daughter.

But when she had a son, and didn't know if she'd have a daughter, the woman decided to give her boy the middle name Rory, so it would be used somewhere.

Now that she is having her daughter, she wants to revert to her favourite name but isn't sure if she can, given that they've already used it.

Taking to Mumsnet to explain the dilemma, she said: "So with my son if he was a girl he would've been Aurora.

"However, he was not so the nickname I'd always loved and envisioned using for Aurora was Rory.

"I gave my son the middle name of Rory as should I not have another child I wanted it in there somewhere!

"It is however a name I've been in love with for 6 years and my partner still wants to use the name Aurora and we can't seem to agree on any other names!"

Fellow Mumsnet users all seemed to share the same opinion.
