Using months/seasons as a name

If someone wants to use June, April, Winter, etc. as a name is it better if they are born during those times, or does it not matter?  I have always wondered this and have a few of these type of names on my list.  Thanks!

I find it a bit cheesy when a child is named for the season or month that they were born in.

I know people say it's cheesy to use a name for the month they were born.

However, I have a personal hang up about and think myself it's weird to name a January baby Autumn (Autumn ranks at the top of my list..but I had summer babies!).

If someone else is going to do it either with the association or in a random month I wouldn't think twice about it.

Either way is fine to me.

I think it's kind of weird to name your June baby June.  But that's just me.

I'd say it's better if they weren't born during the time after which they're named.  It's too cheesy otherwise.

I guess I prefer it not in the month they were born...for example my grandmother's name is June and her birthday is in the middle of April.

I personally don't think it matters. Our baby is due in June, but we are using August as a middle name and would have used Mae as a middle name had it been a girl. Both of them are family names though, so I guess they hold an a different meaning entirely...

As a side note, my sister went to school with the most depressing girl on Earth (dressed in black, talked in monotones, talked about suicude..) - her name was Summer. Ha! Talk about a name that doesn't suit the personality!

Hhaha, this is funny! I went to college with a girl named Summer Day, and she was a cute, bubbly blonde who totally fit the name! I also know 2 Holly's who were born in December, I really don't think its cheesy at all!

I agree with this!

I know a Summer and she was born in November. 

If you like a season name, use it; however, it is a bit cheesy to use season and birth month name together.

It's better if they aren't born during those times.

June is a great name for a girl born in say March... cheesy if she's born in June.
