For a child not born in April?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Nobody has ever called me Ape OP so perhaps you need a switch to January?? You're welcome GrinWink

April is lovely but don't call subsequent siblings May and June 😜

The April I know was born in December, and the May I know was born in July...

I don't think it matters at all, and honestly, I think it smacks of unoriginality to name your child after the month/season in which they were born (April born in April, Summer born in summer etc).

I'd say so.

You'd just assume the kid was born in April.

What did you decide on OP?

No, because April is a beautiful month and it has a nice meaning.

April is a nice name, but I hated it when I was younger. I was also not born in April, and the amount of teasing I endured when I was younger was a lot. TBF it didn't help that the Teenage Mutant Turtles was around at the same time. Even now, I constantly get asked if I was born in April. I like my name now, and I like the fact that I know no-one else who has it. If you like it, then why not but your child will endure some teasing throughout school etc.

It's a lovely name.
