Autumn themed baby girl names

We've just found out we're expecting in late Sept/early October 🥰 baby boy name is already chosen, but literally starting with a blank slate for girl's names. I love autumn, it's my favourite season, so love the idea of having a name related in word/sound/meaning to the season and would love suggestions. I like the name Autumn - pretty straightforward - but DH isn't keen 😔

Tawny. Briar. Fawn.

Hazel is a great name. Or perhaps something outsdoorsy/ forest based such as Sylvie. Siena (as a shade of orangey brown).
I had similar thoughts with my Oct born daughter and struggled to settle on anything but went for a more creative middle name instead.

Aurelia
Orla

Hazel is lovely
Olive
Fearne (spelling I'm not sure is this celebrity spelling?)

tweedler · 24/01/2020 21:26

I always loved Bracken.

SallyWD · 24/01/2020 21:28

I love Amber

Elouera · 24/01/2020 21:29

I'd keep in mind, that its only Autumn in the northern hemisphere in sep/oct!!! You never know where your child will live, travel and settle. For example, I was born in the Autumn in the southern hemisphere but lived in the northern hemisphere 15+yrs. I now have my birthday in Spring.

 Some of the names suggested are really lovely. Are you into nature type names?  Here are some others (not necessarily Autumn related though):

Brooke
Wren
Amber
Laurel
marigold
Ferne
Ottavia
Verda

OxfordCat · 24/01/2020 21:30

Autumn?

OrchidFlakes · 24/01/2020 21:31

Bonnie
Willow
Laurel
Fawn
Hazel

@Elouera it doesn't really matter if they have an autumn themed name and then they move to Australia does it? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Another for Hazel and Amber. Both on our list. Also Robin/Robyn. Maybe something celestial like Luna, Celeste

wowfudge · 24/01/2020 21:44

Bracken sounds like a pony or a dog to me! I like Saffron and Sorrel.

MoonlightMistletoe · 24/01/2020 21:46

I'd go with the name Autumn

deareloise · 24/01/2020 21:47

Octavia, Ember, Laurel, Persephone, Saffron, Opal, Elowen, Rowenna, Bryony.

Howzaboutye · 24/01/2020 21:57

Autumn

bluemoon2468 · 24/01/2020 22:23

Thanks for all of your suggestions!

As I said in my first post, I like the name Autumn but DH isn't keen at all.

Autumn.
It's such a wonderful name. I'd definitely think about it .

Good luck x

PrincessHoneysuckle · 24/01/2020 22:42

Autumn is the nicest suggestion

TatianaLarina · 25/01/2020 00:07

I don’t like Autumn either as a name.

Hazel, Briar, Garnet
