Autumn

ReinettePompadour · 28/08/2017 23:54

Autumn.

I think the others will date very quickly especially Maisy as thats been very popular for a good few years now.

Autumn is a beautiful name. Maisy is lovely too but Autumn edges it for me.

Liadain · 29/08/2017 00:09

Autumn.

Maisy is just bland and wishy washy imo.
Dorothy...better than Maisy but I've a strong dislike of it personally!

elephantoverthehill · 29/08/2017 00:14

I like all 3. Dorothy can become Dot or Tori, and very Wizard of Oz. Maisy is a mouse, a very cute one and Autumn is lovely but does conjurer up the 'Autumn years of your life'.

SkylarFalls · 29/08/2017 00:17

Dorothy. Can be cutsey or serious!

I don't like Maisy! I feel like if it was my name nobody would ever take me seriously!

Don't like Autumn. No reason, just don't like it as a name (great season though!)

weasle · 29/08/2017 00:20

Definitely Dorothy it's a great name!
Others are fine but Dorothy makes me smile.
I work with a 25yo Dorothy / Dot - she's tall and willowy but it really suits her.

Autumn

Jooni · 29/08/2017 01:12

Autumn first, then Dorothy.

Not keen on Maisy - I don't feel like there's enough to it and it's a bit saccharine.

BenLui · 29/08/2017 01:17

Dorothy by a long way.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 29/08/2017 01:24

Dorothy

PotteringAlong · 29/08/2017 01:24

Dorothy.

Maisy

Mclaren37 · 29/08/2017 01:47

Dorothy then Maisy then Autumn. But then Autumn is just not my style, seems more modern and trendy and I prefer vintage names like your other two. Clearly lots of people do like it!

LadyB49 · 29/08/2017 02:01

Love Maisy, then Dorothy.
Don't like Autumn...... Sorry but I think it sounds chavvy.

Sophronia · 29/08/2017 02:20

Dorothy.

Autumn is everywhere on here at the moment!

Raines100 · 29/08/2017 06:12

Autumn

CockPisssPartridge · 29/08/2017 08:56

Autumn by a mile.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 29/08/2017 09:14

I have a Maisie, so that's my choice.😄

Threeandabit · 29/08/2017 09:21

Dorothy

n0ne · 29/08/2017 11:16

Dorothy

WyfOfBathe · 29/08/2017 11:22

I love Dorothy. For me at least, it's the right level of popularity: well known and easy to pronounce, but there won't be 6 in her year group.

Mrsknackered · 29/08/2017 11:22

Dorothy. Just because I love Dotty/Dot.

Not a fan of Autumn

early30smum · 29/08/2017 11:24

Maisy but I prefer the spelling Maisie. Autumn is nice too. I don't like Dorothy but so like Dorothea if that's an option.

I'd probably pick Maisy first, then Autumn.
