For a week day I would choose Sunday (not with mn Rose). It seems the most like a name to me and its nn could be Sunny.
The month I would choose is October because I like the nn Tobie.
As I am writing this I thought we could also the season we would most like to name a child. I would have to choose Summer. I've always thought that was a pretty name.

I would choose Tuesday for a boy or a girl, just because I prefer the sound of it over the other days.
As for months, I would choose August for a boy and January for a girl. I know August is accepted as a name, but January isn't, so why am I choosing January as opposed to April, May, or June? Simple. I don't like any of these names (except maybe June as a middle name). I think January sounds cute and would flow well with other names. January Grace, January Sophia, January Danielle, etc. I hate the nn Jan, though, so my next choice would be October, which is cute as well, but mostly for a middle name. :]

I like the idea of seasons! All season names are pretty much accepted as names for people except Spring. I wonder why that is. Maybe it's because a spring is an object as well, so it might be like naming your kid Cushion or something.. Hmm.. What do you guys think? Anyway, I actually like all the other season names, but if I had to choose, I'd choose Autumn because I think it's the classiest and most graceful, cute without being cutesy, and would age well. :)

For a day of the week I would pick Wednesday. I guess I just love the Addams Family lol. No, but I always thought the name was cute and heard Winnie as a nickname and thought it was cute.

For a month I would pick July for a girl. I think Jules is cute for a nickname if you had to pick a nickname for the name. For a boy I don't really care for any of the months as boys names.

Tuesday would be my choice for a boy and Sunday for a girl.
For months, August or October for a boy, and for a girl either June or January.

Sunday is the only day name I like, and it's not really high for me.

Months I LOVE August for a boy and October for a girl.

Seasons...I love them all. Spring maybe only as a middle, but I'd use the other 3 for firsts!

I like Tuesday, makes me think of a Lynard Skynard song, "Tuesday's gone with the wind," and Sunday is decent too. I LOVE October, and December would be my second choice. As for seasons, Autumn is my FAVORITE name ever, but unfortunatley Justin won't let me name my daughter that. Bummer.

For a boy I'd have to say August or Friday
For a girl...I hate April, May and June so I'd have to say January nn Janey/Jane/Jan and Thursday.

There is actually a set of books by Jasper Fforde whose main character is Thursday Next, she has a son named Friday and her mother is Tuesday and such and such characters in her family are named after days of the week.

  • Interests:I LOVE reading. I'm into almost every genre and generally read a book a week, if possible. I like Iris Johansen, Karen Marie Moning, Stephen King, James Patterson, Jane Austen, Charlotte Brontë, Diana Gabaldon, Kathy Reichs, and Robert Burns (every Scot's favorite author). I really love music and even got accepted to the Mason Gross School of Performing Arts at Rutgers University (my alma mater) for vocal performance. Unfortunately performance life was not for me, so I went into English Lit and French instead. Music is still a big part of my life, and I like a multitude of musical genres from Reggae to Rock to Opera. I've seen Carmen and La bohème each twice. (And I cry every time.) My husband and I also have a special place in our hearts for The Beatles.

Posted 16 September 2008 - 03:19 PM

For a boy, August & Friday (though I think naming your a kid after the a day of the week is a little too odd)

For a girl I'm going to be traditional and say April & Tuesday (I used to work with a girl named Tuesday when I was in college)

For a boy, I would name him Thursday, since it came from the god Thor (I believe) I think it would be cool to call him Thor still.
For a girl, I would name her hmm, Well I actually don't mind Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday. I might choose Monday actually.
For a boy, I would name him August.
For ag irl, this is tough becaue I love May, April, and June. i think they are all gorgeous classics, but maybe June because I rarely hear it.
For a boy, I would name him Winter.
For a girl, Iwould name her Summer or Autumn, I love them both.
