Aurora

From the Latin word for dawn, associated with the Roman goddess who flew across the sky to announce the morning. It spent over a century on the quieter pages of American registers before climbing steeply into the top twenty during the 2020s.

A bearer of this name is overwhelmingly likely to still have homework. With roughly seventy percent of living Auroras belonging to Generation Alpha, the name currently belongs to elementary school classrooms and playground rosters. It sounds expansive and operatic, though in practice it is usually being called out across a minivan parking lot.
