WDYT of Winter?

Tygerli11y

This was a name of a main character in a book I read 3 years ago. This is also DH and I's favorite season, we love the cold !. Our sons name is Christian so our other options are Camryn, Carys and Cadence if we choose to stick with the C theme. We will start TTC again in Septenber and I am hoping for a girl. I love the name Winter. WDYT?

I know someone who just named their DD Winter Rose...I wouldn't use it but I do think it's pretty.

Ditto. But I kinda like Carys Winter.

Summer and Autumn are pretty, but Winter is too out there for me which is kinda silly considering it's just another season.?

I love the name Winter!

I went to high school with a Winter and she's a very cool chick!  She was a little out there/rebelous in HS, now she's a lawyer still with a bit of a rock and roll side

Winter is the best of your choices.  i do not like the superfluous use of "Y".

The problem with Winter is she'd  have to be a super hottie to pull it off.  If she's pretty, personable, etc, it's all good.  If she's a nerdy awkward wallflower, not so good.  i know that sounds harsh, but you know it's true on some level.  Not that your girl won't automatically be a hottie .

I agree with this about a lot of names. Cool, self-confident kids can pull off some unusual names that awkward kids would be made fun of for.

Winter is nms.

I love the name Carys!  reminds me of Catherine Zeta Jone's baby though-- but not too many people know that.  Winter reminds me of Harlow Winter Kate, Nicole Richie's baby.  Its pretty but NMS.  I spend too much time reading US magazine LOL!

Winter was our #1 top girl name... until we realized that our last name is Weldon. It sounds horrible with our last name

It's cold...

NMS, but not bad. I think Winnie would be a cute nn! I wonder how Winter would look on a Resume though? It's one of those things, give her a more conventional middle name if you do it so she can switch if she wants to.

I'm agreeing with this, too. 

 

That being said - I Winter.

Yea, I totally know what you mean. With a name like that she will have to have some spunk to back it.

We thought about this too, so we are considering using it as a middle name and calling her Winter as a child. If she chooses to continue with it as an adult or go by her first name that will be fine. Before we knew the sex of DC #1 we had Victoria Winter as our girls name. Now that DS name is Christian, I kinda want to stay with the C theme, but who knows we may change our minds.

Eh, if you TTC in Sept.and it works sooner rather than later, you're looking at a baby in late May, or June, July, August...etc. Definitely not winter-time. So I'd go with no.

?I absolutely LOVE the name, and I certainly don't think it's too "out there"

I do agree that you might want to make sure the seasons align though... If she's born in May or something, it might be a bit odd to name her Winter?
