History & Origin

Auria comes from Latin aurea, 'golden' — a medieval given name in the Aurelia family, borne by the Spanish anchoress St. Auria (Oria). It returns now with the Aur- glow of Aurora and Aurelia.

It registers thinly in records. Rare, golden at the root, and airy.

Did you know? St. Auria of San Millán lived walled in prayer in medieval Spain — a hermitess whose golden name outshone her stone cell.
