[Opinions] Re: Ourania & Urania
in reply to a message by Manipura
Hi !!!.
I would pronounce Ourania oh-oo-RAH-nya and Urania oo-RAH-nya.
I prefer Urania because it is more immediate. Then the 'ou' part reminds me of the French pronounciation that is like 'oo' too. So..why the name would be more complex if the pronounciation is the same?
Obviously if I were Greek I would choose Ourania but in my opinion worldwide Urania works better.
Urania is airy, sophisticated and aristocratic. In Italy this name is used but it's rare. I like it though.
