Origin and meaning of Aurelia

Aurelia is the feminine form of the Roman family name Aurelius, from the Latin aurum, 'gold': it means 'golden, shining like gold.' Borne by matrons of ancient Rome—among them Aurelia Cotta, mother of Julius Caesar—it is a name with a classical, luminous aura. Found in Italy, Spain, France, and German-speaking countries, it boasts the refined French variant Aurélie. It evokes light, warmth, and ancient nobility, with an elegant, timeless sound.
