Winter, for a boy?

My daughter's middle name is Summer, she was born in Summer. I want to do the same for my son - he is due in December! Thoughts on Winter as a middle name, for a boy?

Gorgeous as a middle name
No it's really, really not.
I love it when the op suggests a really shit name and posters pile on suggesting variations/different spellings of said name. No, swapping a few letters round will never detract from the fact that it's an awful, ridiculous, made up name Hmm
Out of interest, as we're talking about naming children after seasons, does anyone call their child 'Spring'?

My daughter has the middle name Summer, also a season, so that's not an issue to me! Grin

Wynter is nice, but I'd like it to actually be the season Smile

Sounds like girls name but that's maybe due to having a friend called win (winnifred).
Not keen tbh

Awful. It's a season, not a christian name.

Cute name but he might get a bit of a hard time at school once he's older! Sounds more of a girls name.

Forgot to say my son has 'Wyn' as one of his middle names after my grandmother who is 'Wynifred'

I like it. But would use Wynter or Wyn for a boy.

RebelRogue · 20/11/2016 20:55

AllI can think think of is "Winter is coming"

I'd expect a girl if it was a first name, but I don't think it would be an issue for a middle name.

DramaAlpaca · 20/11/2016 20:48

I quite like it too.

Sophronia · 20/11/2016 20:47
