I think Autumn Charlotte sounds fine or Autumn Elizabeth/Autumn Olivia sound good. I think you are right that Autumn Imogen doesn't really flow though.

Autumn Charlotte is lovely. Also, it'd be long but Autumn Charlotte Imogen last-name would be beautiful (if you're determined to include Imogen, which I really like too).

Imogen definitely xx

I love Imogen and only know of two - one mid thirties and one early twenties. I think it has a lovely, soft yet strong sound - sorry, nothing like a toilet roll.

I think Autumn is a great name and went to school with one - she’d be late thirties now so it’s been around for a while.

The name always gave me a picture of beautiful golden and red leaves, so if I were to use it I’d probably go for something like:
Autumn Aurelia
Autumn Scarlett
Autumn Blaise
Autumn Amber.

I just wanted to add that Autumn Sienna from your list just now is lovely, too. There’s that warm, golden red seasonal feeling to that name as well.

Oh, and if Autumn is born in spring it doesn’t matter! Just do what Snow White’s parents did in the story about the blood and the snow and tell her that when you were pregnant with her and you were waiting for her, you saw so many beautiful autumn leaves and trees that you knew she would be gorgeous, brilliant and strong, just like them.

Problem solved!

Iliada I love your posts! Thank you :) thank you for the feedback.

I love Autumn Aurelia is a fab suggestion. Adding it to my list. Grin

I like both. Probably prefer Autumn- I just think it’s connotations and the sound of the word are gorgeous. Obviously Imogen is more commonplace so I guess it depends if you’d prefer to play it safe or go for something more unusual?
