Aurélie (or its variants Aurelie or Aurelia) is a feminine name primarily occurring in France, deriving from the Latin Aurelius (golden) family. The masculine forms are Aurèle and Aurélien. The name was historically popular in France, and is currently seeing a resurgence across Europe.

The name is sometimes also given outside of France, especially in Mediterranean countries and the Netherlands. In some cases, the accent aigu on the first e is dropped (Aurelie), and occasionally the final e is replaced with an a (Aurelia), especially in Italy and Romania. Common nicknames include Rory, Arie, and Aurie.
