Autumn Names for Boys



Well it's September 21st, and Autumn is now with us. There are many names one can associate with Summer, but it seems there are fewer names tied with the fall season - wrong!

First of all, the name Autumn is the most popular season name, albeit for girls only, even though for me it sounds boy-ish. However, there are alternatives for boys if you don't wanna risk it.

You could start by looking up the name Autumn in other languages: Automne, Outono, Ruduo, Syksy, Haust, Podzim, Autunno. All of these sound exotic and fresh, and perfectly usable on a boy.
And if months like May and August can be used as names, why not go with September, October or November? All three are pretty usable as names, especially the latter names, with cute nicknames such as Toby, Tober, Ember, Nove, Novie, Octo, Octie, Sep. None of these month names are popular at all, so they haven't been given a gender yet - go grab them for your boys while the girls haven't put their hands on them.




Gems related to this season that could be used as boy names: Sapphire, Beryl, Topaz. You could even get some nice nicknames from these if you don't want to get too literal, for example: Sapphie, Berry, Topy.

Autumn colors you could use as names are: Gold, Silver, Brown, Maroon, Bronze, Rust, Sepia, Rufus, Beige, Mahogany, Khaki, Ecru, Umber, Auburn. All of these colors are associated with the fall season, and I could see boys around the country wearing these names.

And to finish of, here are some more boy names that could be related to this season:
