How to honor autumn...when you hate Autumn?

[name]Hi[/name] Berries!

As we move into another beautiful fall, I’m reminded of how much I love this time of year. When it’s not fall, I’m wishing it was.

I would love to find a way to honor my love for autumn (probably in a mn spot.) However, I really don’t care for the name [name]Autumn[/name] at all. I’m looking for creative ideas for this problem!

What names are out there that have an autumn feel? They can be related to fall colors, sounds, events… Go wild!

I know the feeling! So here are some things that make me think of fall:

[name]Poppy[/name]
[name]Aspen[/name]
[name]Juniper[/name]
[name]Laurel[/name]
[name]Olive[/name]
[name]Rowan[/name]
[name]Aurelia[/name]
[name]Anonna[/name]
[name]Rory[/name]
[name]Flavia[/name]

[name]Hope[/name] that helps!

I love [name]Aspen[/name]. I saw a “Harvest” on here a while back. [name]LOVE[/name] that!

I love autumn, although being in the southern hemisphere, we are only a few days away from [name]Spring[/name] (hooray that winter is on its way out!).

I love this [name]George[/name] [name]Eliot[/name] quote: “Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.”

I think [name]Autumn[/name] is evocative of nature names, tree names in particular. Of course there is fantastic inspiration in this blog post from a few years ago…Autumn Names | Nameberry

I don’t like the name Autumn, but love the original Latin which is Autumnus for a boy. It reminds me of Mr. Tumnus from Naria. I love the fall season as well and just wrote a name blog on this very topic last week! Check it out:
