April

[crashingwaves]

My baby is due in October :)

Is this therefore a silly name? I just love it!

My DD was born on the last day of April,she could have been an April or a May,strangely didn't think of either at the time!! April is really pretty but maybe an odd choice for an October baby.How about Octavia?

It isn't the significance of the month really, I just love that particular name. I'm not really keen on Octavia, sorry! Other 'possibles' are Grace, Harriet or Anna :)

I love the name April.

Personally think I'd avoid April if the baby was born in that month because it shows quite a lack of creativity. Name? April. Date of birth? April. Bit monotonous for the kid! October is well out of the zone so I'd go for it!

Octavia is a car these days!

I don't like the fact that it starts with Ape

Agree with you Valium. Used to work with an April and she was called Ape all the time.

From your other suggestions Harriet is my favourite followed by the ever popular Grace.

I love April.
When my older two were younger we used to watch a show called Little Bill, we have all the books too. Bills older sister is called April, and she is a good female character (for a book aimed at young children anyway!)

April's on my list. Though it does make me think of Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles.

I love April. And Avril.

I love April. And Avril.

Know it's not what you're looking for, but I knew an October. It was lovely actually. It suited her and she really liked it.

Love April and Grace - beautiful girlie names

Thank you, I am leaning heavily towards April Katharine or April Harriet :)

I prefer Avril.

I've never really considered Avril, thanks for your thoughts though.

April is a lovely name!
Can't you think of some other spurious connection to justify the month thing (parents first snog, month you decided you wanted a baby, MIL's birthday month / whatever?)

I would only call a child April if it wasn't born in April!

I prefer October tbh!

Very pretty, especially on an October baby (nowhere near April).
