Seasons as Names

We're definitely going to use a season name for our baby. I did like Summer though I did hear that this was getting popular.
The main ones in order of preference are Winter, Summer, Autumn. Spring isn't really on our list as it sounds silly and I;ve not heard as a name.
Winter, Summer, Autumn AND even Spring. Wdyt?

I havew always loved Autumn as a name and because i am so sold on having Win/Winnie as a nickname Winter would be a lovely name. Summer for me has been ruined by eastenders dawn and her baby but i do really like it

what season will she be born in?

Wow - lovely lovely names!

Spring only sounds daft in English because of the boingy meaning too! In Slavic languages the poetic word for Spring is a strong, beautiful word and great girls name IMHO...

Which season will your baby be born in? I only ask because I think it is very romantic for a girl to be named after the season she was born in. To the extent that this would be my strongest deciding factor on which name to choose... the others simply wouldn't get a look in !

I love all three names. Spring is silly though as you say.
