Autumn

Serruhhx2 · March 2011

DH suggested this last night... I was friends with an Autumn in high school, but I do think it's a pretty name. Not entirely sure.

Thoughts?

I go to Baby Name Genie and they have a spot where you can "test drive" a name. They plug your name into a whole bunch of sentences you might say to your child to see how the name feels.

Good name as long as if you have another DD you don't use the name Summer.

somewhat unrelated question: do you think it's ok to use a season or month name for a baby not born in that time? i.e. to name a baby born in July "Autumn" or a baby born in December "June"?

I'm not a fan of it. . . Or any month, seasons, etc. names. I look at it as hippie-ish (which is TOTALLY not me). But if you guys like that sort of thing and are free-er people... go for it.

I absolutely love Autumn. It isn't uncommon and it's very "normal"... BTW, I'm the complete opposite of a hippie lol

I think it's fine to use it regardless of when your baby is due.

I think it's fine. I actually think it's a little cheesy when seasonal names are used in season.

This is my nieces name and I love it

LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!

It would be on top of our list if we weren't having a July baby. (I have a personal hang up about this for some reason).

We may use it anyways...we both love it that much.

I think it's better that way, honestly. I think it is majorly cheesy to name a girl born in April, April and so on... I think by using it completely unrelated to the season/month in which the baby is born, it gives the name its own identity...which is a good thing. That said, I really like Autumn.
