I’m looking for holiday/winter names that aren’t too obvious.
Girls or Boys.

I am a huge fan of the Nutcracker so if I ever were to have a holiday baby then [name_f]Clara[/name_f] would be my absolute top pick! For that same reason, I like [name_f]Plum[/name_f] as a middle (in honor of the lovely [name_f]Sugar[/name_f] [name_f]Plum[/name_f] fairy).
One name that makes me think of [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] but in a not-so-obvious way is [name_f]Clementine[/name_f], because of the old tradition to put clementines in [name_u]Christmas[/name_u] stockings.
If you’re going for something less [name_u]Christmas[/name_u]-y and more generalized winter-themed, I rather like [name_f]Eira[/name_f] (snow) and [name_f]Bianca[/name_f] (which means white)
