Do you think it's tacky to name a child after a month they were NOT born in?

When I meet a child with a month name, my usual guess would be that a) the month has some significance to the family (either as an honor or just as a special month for them), or b) the parents just liked how the name sounded (especially in the cases of [name_u]August[/name_u], [name_u]June[/name_u] and May). I wouldn’t automatically assume that a child with a month name was literally born in that month

You know what is tacky? Naming a child after the place they were conceived.

Yeah I’ve never really understood that one either. Feels just a tad odd to me, and honestly just really awkward
