[Opinions] Re: Summer and Autumn
in reply to a message by Ismene
As far as season names go for boys, I definitely prefer Winter. I like it for either gender.
I think that Autumn sounds unisex, but considering that it's common for girls, people would assume he was a girl if they only saw the name.
Summer definitely seems more feminine to me. However, I like Somerled for a boy. I would only use it as a middle name, though.

My recent discovery of Somerled is actually what led me to post. Since Somer would be the most obvious nickname it just got me thinking about Summer and Autumn as names in general. I've always found them a bit tired on girls but I'm really starting to love the sound of Somer/Sommer/Summer on a boy. I would be less likely to consider Autumn because of its popularity but when it comes to the basic sounds of it, it sounds more masculine to me
