Name Poll

I have a very unique name I want for my DD due this Winter. My husband likes another. Between the two which is better?

December or Autumn

I love December and DH likes Autumn. Thanks!

Autumn. December isn't a name to me. how about naming her Winter?

Scarlett&Gatsby · August 2013

Autumn is NMS.

I wouldn't side-eye December. Lots of people have month (and even weekday) names. I prefer PP suggestion of Winter, and I also like just Ember, too.

ETA: DD2 has a weird name. It's really not a big deal.

Do you like January?

I don't like either, but I think Autumn is a million times better than December.

I can't picture December on a human being.

This.

Winter is adorable. Maybe Wynter and call her Winnie or Whyn as a NN. THANKS!

No no no no no, pLEASE don't use an unnecessary Y. Winter is fine the way it is if you must use it. What do you get out of using the Y?

ETA spelling

This. I love the name Autumn though.

ETA: If you choose Winter. Use that spelling. No Y!

StickyBaby · August 2013

How about Decima? It is a feminine Ancient Roman name.

Please do not name a baby Wynter! @-)

Winter is fine. DO NOT misspell it!!!!

Scarlett&Gatsby · August 2013

PP said it best. The Y is no bueno. But Winter is gorgeous.

Helenahhandbasket · August 2013

Autumn...it just sounds prettier IMO

MrsSparklesMcGee · August 2013

Much prefer WInter to Autumn or December.

magsugar13 · August 2013

autumn I love it

not a fan of december

Kmommy91 · August 2013

I'm not a fan of either. I think Winter and January are nice.

JemmaWRX · August 2013

Autumn. Please don't name her December, so bad. I do like Winter though.

forrystar · August 2013

I like Winter a lot. And no Y in it!! DH liked it too, so thanks for the suggestion ladies!

MMason12 · August 2013

Chalk another one up for someone who isn't a fan of either name; however, if I had to pick between the two I would go with Autumn. I just cannot see calling someone December, as it's not a real name to me.

oliversbear · August 2013

I actually like December.

Other options for "wintery" names:
Nieve
Holly
Narcissa

Barbercharm · August 2013

I like December!! But only if you don't have her in December.. That would be weird to me.

kaylynne · August 2013

my first response was not favorable, but I think it's growing on me. December, nn Ember...
I just finished a book with a character named October who went by Toby, and "The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making" was named September (no nn).

I also like Winter (but definitely not Wynter).

Autumn is a beautiful, safe choice.

mrs.vanderwall · August 2013

I like Winter. Not Wynter. And Autumn is okay. December is just....No.

brookelynpaisley · August 2013

Autumn. I can't picture a 30-year-old, professional December.

I like PP's suggestion of Winter, although that stands out as more "hippie" to me than Autumn does, for some reason.

moonfaerie · August 2013

I actually love December. Autumn and Winter are nice, too.

Keri Marie · August 2013

I know people with both names. I like both but would use Autumn. I also like PP of Winter

tenfour · August 2013

Winter was going to be our name if this baby was a girl. LOVE IT.

Vraechel · August 2013

December isn't a name I'd go with but it's ok. Noelle? Or if your not religious Winter. If you like December would you use a nickname. December seems long.
