Interesting names in surgery today, unusually so which is why i am making note,
A woman (Cara) with three daughters: Aristo, Alexeias (alex-zay-us) and Darcy,
she's picked out for number four: Persephone, Astra or Oreli (aw-ray-lee) - could be wrong about the spelling, for a boy Draco or Quinn,

And another woman (Heaven - a very smart business woman too), with two daughters, Amandine and Estrella (es-stray-a) (know this means star in spanish, so the spelling is thus, unless it was Astraia? I didn't ask.)

AND a family friend has just called her daughter Setara, considering this is a pretty unusual name i mentioned it as one on my list i think there is no coincidence...lol

Cool names! I believe "aw-ray-lee" is spelled Aurélie. It's a very pretty French name that comes from Aurelia.

Sorry to disagree with the previous poster, but I would bet money that the name is Arely. That's in the top 1000. I taught two girls name Arely last year. It's probably from the same root, but it also could be a variant of Aracely, which was also pretty popular in my class (two of them as well).
