Apricity for a girl

Found this word in the dictionary meaning the warmth of the sun on a winters day. Thinking it would make an excellent unusual girls name, particularly one born in the winter months. Thoughts?

Nice meaning but as a name, no...when I first read it I thought it said Aprilcity.
How about April, Avril or Felicity?

Not many people are going to know what that means or make any connection with the meaning - it’ll just sound like an odd clunky made up name.

No

I think it sounds like one of those new electricity companies that knock on your door trying to persuade you to switch to them.

I don't want to be horrible.... But that name is just terrible imo.

You could just name her floccinaucinihilipilification...

I like it, think it’s very pretty. I’d use it.

I thought it was autocorrect for Apricot.

It's just not a nice sounding word. It definitely has the feel of a rebranded company name.

Davespecifico · 13/05/2020 23:06

You could call her Winter Sun.

Love it

Yuk! Looks ugly written down. Sounds horrible like 1950s US electrics company.
Autumn is nice.
Or Sienna.

Just wait till she's 18 to pick her name
