April is a lovely name but there seems to be polarized opinions about it on MN Easter Smile

Waiting for the poster called January, who was born in June, with a MIL called April, to make an appearance

I know a 1 year old April who was born last April.

It's a cute name and ages well.

PenelopeFlintstone · 02/05/2017 12:22

I like it.

Loola24 · 02/05/2017 12:18

Love it

Redladybug · 28/04/2017 19:56

Really love it Smile

Baconsausageandegg · 26/04/2017 22:22

Adore it !!

MrsCharlieD · 26/04/2017 20:41

It's OK but I'm going against the grain and I don't think it goes with jayden at all. April is a traditional classics imo, jayden is a modern trendy name. To me the 2 don't go.

WingMirrorSpider · 26/04/2017 17:04

Really pretty. Well known but underused.

Just don't give her the middle name May Grin

TaurielTest · 26/04/2017 17:03

Also, April Ludgate from Parks and Rec is awesome.

Love it!

Lemondrop09 · 26/04/2017 14:08

I think it's very pretty.

I don't agree that Summers need to be born in summer, or that April/May/Junes must be born in their respective months. I think these are all stand alone names now.

Amberlola259 · 26/04/2017 13:20

Lovely name x

BasicBetty · 26/04/2017 13:18

Lovely name

FeedTheSharkAndItWIllBite · 26/04/2017 12:51

Lovely for an April baby :)

I also like Avril. Just because April can sound really harsh in some cases.

But it's a lovely name imo.

KanyeWesticle · 26/04/2017 11:17

Lovely choice. Pretty and uncommon but known.

Kazzawazza69 · 26/04/2017 10:22

Love it!

DissonantInterval · 26/04/2017 10:15

Congratulations :) Love the name April. Not used a lot but without being too wild and whacky. It has a fresh sound and it's a lovely time of year (well apart from yesterday which was very wild and whacky here). Goes nicely with Jayden too imo.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 26/04/2017 08:09

Very pretty !

zen1 · 26/04/2017 01:06

Very nice name.

GinSwigmore · 26/04/2017 01:03

Daffodil April goes nicely with Jayden.

GinSwigmore · 26/04/2017 01:02

Avril is lovely.

ScarlettFreestone · 26/04/2017 00:48

Beautiful.

Buntysoven · 26/04/2017 00:45

I disagree. April is the prettiest of the month names and the only one I'd be tempted to use. Really lovely

SuperBeagle · 26/04/2017 00:17

Going against the grain, I think it lacks imagination to give your child the name of the month they were born in. A June born in June just screams unoriginality, to me. Like the parent thought it was convenient that their birth month could also be a name so thought, "Fuck it, we'll name 'er June".
