She was also called Aurora in the Walt Disney version which is probably taken from the name given to her in the ballet "The Sleeping Beauty" for which Tschaikovsky composed the music. Aug 16 06, 2:02 AM

"Aurora" (French for "Dawn") was actually the daughter of Sleeping Beauty, who is not named as other than "The Princess" in Perrault's story. http://www.pitt.edu/~dash/perrault01.html Aug 16 06, 6:31 PM
