Middle name to go with Autumn?

[badfurday]

Hello fellow Mumsnetters...
So, we have found out we are having a little girly.
I love the name Autumn, my husband likes it too, but is reluctant as you cant shorten it. We are thinking of a middle name so we can shorten her name to AJ ( eg if she was called Autumn Jessica)
I originally wanted Autumn Saffron, but this would make her initials ASS as my surname starts with S.
So, can anyone come up with some nice middle names? Or ideas for shortening Autumn. To be honest I don't thinks its a big deal to not be able to shorten it, but its important to my husband.

I'm with you on the nn front op. I can imagine if we had a wee autumn we'd end up calling her Rusty or something similar! It's also a shame to nn such a beautiful name in the first place!

Imo a middle name with the letters
D (Addy)
G (Aggy)
J (AJ)
L (Ally) may get lost with other Alison's.
N (Annie) as above

AJ would be my preference so Autumn:
Julia or Juliet (latin: shiny, sky)
Jemma (precious gemstone or jewel)
Or a plant based one like Jacy or Juniper.

I like those because they conjour up a pretty image with Autumn.

AJ is two syllables same as Autumn so I don’t see how that’s a shortening?

Autumn is lovely! And I would happily use any of these as a nn for Autumn - Tikky, Tizzy, Tootie, Tansy, Taisy, Tiggy, Tommi, Matty, Mimi, or the like. But then I have a broad view of nicknames. I think any of these would be much better than the AJ type of nickname.

Given my views on nns above, I would just use something sounding good in the middle rather than try to turn it into something:
Autumn Beatrix
Autumn Kerensa
Autumn Kate
Autumn Frances
Autumn Cicely
Autumn Claire
Autumn Victoria
Autumn Sophie

I can see this is a zombie thread. But seeing as it's been resurrected I thought I'd add that I know a little girl named Autumn Rayn!

@Turquoiseandpurple argh well spotted - I always fall for these !!!

Autumn Rose

I wonder what Autumn is actually called now?? I wonder if OP is still about to answer??

I know a little girl called Autumn Willow which I think is such a pretty name.

Just seen that this is a zombie thread - oops.
