January - so much cooler (no pun intended) than the other month names?

[Pinkandgreenandblue]

Jan for short isn't great though. Opinions?

I thought you wanted Tuesday?
How about an actual name rather than a date?

Yawn

wolfiefan brace yourself for this but I'm actually considering... more than one name!! I know, shocking isn't it

It's quite pretty. I like June too

Thursday is the best name for a girl.

It's awful. April is my favourite. Tuesday is also awful.

I love those books Bridget

January is cool but not Jan.

I like seasons - Summer, Autumn, Winter but not Spring

I think April sounds really mumsy. I love Winter. Thursday is cool

No, Amanda sounds really mumsy

Days of the week names are weird to me. Not so sure about season ones, Summer is probably the most mainstream. Month ones, well, hmm. April/May/June are ok. Probably again because they're more mainstream than others.

No. That is bad too. Sorry.

Makes me think of January Jones and she's quite cool. (Sticking with the theme!) Wonder if that's her real name.

It's sounds a bit celeb like to me probably for that reason but definitely prefer it to Tuesday.

Not quite sure why you are getting a hard time OP. They are legitimate names if not to everyone's taste.

I know someone who is called Tuesday--- or is it Wednesday, or Friday??

I love January and Tuesday. Agree with you these are best month / day names.

I prefer January to Tuesday. Winter is nice too.

I prefer Tuesday to January x

You're not really considering names as we think of them in the UK. One is a day of the week and the other is a month.

What's next? Twelvenoon?

Avril or Averil is mumsy. May is OK if it's someone's Granny but Mae isn't. June makes me think of Dot Cotton.

I wouldn't do it but I do secretly like month and day names. Wednesday though not Tuesday. Is the baby due in January? I do like January. Maybe August for a boy. December for a girl as well?

Are you due in January op? I considered Winter and January too but think baby is more likely to come in December so that's January out. Plus you're right Jan isn't nice. A nn doesn't always have to be the first bit of the name though... JJ or something?
