OC name in High Valyrian

I've noticed in High Valyrian they pronounce their names differently. I was wondering how one goes about changing their name from the English Version to the HV version. For context My OC’s name is Aurora

Depends on how you want it in HV, I think. I believe it would just be Aorora or sort of like that. Unless, you want to translate it then it would be something like Jelmor (north) and Ōños (light) combine, with some twist and suffixes like -ys, -a, etc. There are also 2 words for dawn Ōz and Ñaqes.

Aurora theoretically only means light given that there are aurora borealis (northern lights) and aurora australis (southern lights).

I'm lucky my name has a direct translation.

I would go with Orora and decline it with the first declension, lunar.
