    Stage name origin

    Au/Ra's stage name consists of two elements from the periodic table: "Au" stands for gold, while "Ra" stands for radium. According to Alan Walker's Unmasked Vlog #1 Video on YouTube,[2] Jamie stated that there are already a couple of artists with the first name of 'Aura', and when she chose 'Aura' as her stage name, she decided to put a slash between 'Au' and 'Ra'. She also mentioned that her artist name derives from a The Lord of the Rings fan-fiction she read when she was younger, where the main character was called Aura.
