If it was my first, 0rɛstinᴀ [name_u]Lee[/name_u] Alani.
If it wasn’t my first, [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] [name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] (if I don’t have a boy), Tɛgᴀn [name_f]Dorothy[/name_f] [name_u]Kai[/name_u], [name_f]Yara[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] [name_f]Jora[/name_f] and [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] [name_f]Carys[/name_f] [name_f]Autumn[/name_f] are all in contention.
[name_f]Jora[/name_f] means “[name_f]Autumn[/name_f] [name_u]Rain[/name_u]”. So if you love the meaning or connection of [name_f]Autumn[/name_f], but aren’t as enamored with the name, maybe try to find a name with [name_f]Autumn[/name_f] in the meaning or a name thought of as an “[name_f]Autumn[/name_f]-themed” name.
At this particular moment it would be either [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] [name_f]Callisto[/name_f] or
[name_f]Calista[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
I love the name [name_f]Autumn[/name_f]! I’m also crushing on [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] right now.
A daughter born today would probably be [name_f]Flora[/name_f]: [name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] (with husband’s input), or [name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] if I were allowed free reign!
I also adore the name [name_f]Nell[/name_f], but probably wouldn’t use it as it’s a diminutive of DD2’s middle name.
Without worrying about usability issues with my country, I would name my daughter [name_u]Beck[/name_u] [name_u]Sloane[/name_u]. Runner ups, [name_u]Jo[/name_u], [name_m]Cole[/name_m] and [name_u]Cass[/name_u].
Yesterday it would’ve been [name_u]Artemis[/name_u] [name_u]Ember[/name_u] [name_f]Louise[/name_f], but today I’m seriously crushing on [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] Thistle [name_f]Louise[/name_f] so that’s probably what I’d name her
It would be a toss up between [name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f] [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] [name_f]Shara[/name_f], nn [name_f]Willa[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] [name_f]Shara[/name_f], nn [name_u]Romy[/name_u]. [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] is after my mother and grandmother and [name_f]Shara[/name_f] is a combination of my sisters’ names–[name_f]Sharon[/name_f] and [name_f]Erica[/name_f].
My traditional answer is [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]–she’s been my top name for 9 years and 10 months!–with [name_f]Adele[/name_f] as a backup. These days, I could easily see me with either. I am hardcore crushing on [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] and [name_f]Vera[/name_f] today, though! I love that [name_f]Vera[/name_f] means “truth”, and reminds me of my grandmother’s deep love for her beloved [name_f]Russia[/name_f].
Today, she’d be [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] “[name_f]Cece[/name_f]” or “[name_f]Celia[/name_f]”. Or maybe [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] or [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], MN [name_f]Jane[/name_f] as it’s an honour name.
