The name June

[JulyDreams]

What do people think?!

Thanks everyone!

I know a 5yr old June.. (born in June!) gets called Junie/Juno..
I went to school with 3 sisters
.. April, May and June.. Youngest was called Tracy!
I actually like it..

Not a fan of month names. Joan and Jean are nicer.
Other than that it's ok.

No. June Whitfield (Terry and June)

I like June. I’ve seen it popping up more as a middle name. Junia is by a clear margin my favourite Jun- name, but sadly in my non-rhotic accent it sounds just like Junior. In a vacuum though, or if it works with your accent I love it.

I know a June 3yo who goes by Junie at nursery. It's very cute. Although if I met anyone called June my first question would be were you born in June?

I like it but I know a very vibrant woman called June (aged around 50 so younger than most Junes) which means I don't associate it with 'old ladies' in the way I do with Jean/Joan

I also think of the month not just the name so it has a similar timeless vibe to April or May

I love it. I follow Charlotte Jacklin on Insta and her little girl is called June - suits her so much!

I would too - but I don’t expect Augusts to be born in August, I don’t know why!!

It's great! I'm adding it to my list for future girls now.

What about Jane as well

@Annoymousy , the month was named after Augustus, not the other way round.

Like it

I think June is so cute! A classic name:)

June is in our family too and I wanted it for baby girl but OH said it sounds too old, considering it for a middle name. I do still really like it.

I love it

I like the name June but I think they have to be born in June though.

I do find June and May more common with the older generation.
And I think names like April and August are more associated with a younger generation.

No definitely not

I love it. Would definitely been in the running if I'd had biol kids (my DC came pre-named 😉). I love short but pretty girls' names - also Jane, Anne etc.

It's okay..

I know a baby Juno and i think it's quirky and beautiful!

Why are you thinking about using it if you don’t like it?!

It’s coming back into fashion I think. I quite like it for a June baby.

Not a fan

"It's June, dad".
No no no

I'm in my 50s, and I barely remember Terry and June. It was something my granny watched. By the time the baby Junes of today grow up, hardly anyone will have heard of it. And it's not like it was anything bad, anyway - just an unfunny sitcom.

I don't remember a programme called Terry and June and I'm 39 so I think most people won't give a toss that there was once a programme with a character called June in it I think June is a classier version of Juno, makes me think of summer

I like it and it would be a contender but it doesn’t go with our surname
