55 of the best fall baby names for boys and girls
If you're planning to welcome a baby this fall — or if you just love the autumn season — these fall baby names might be perfect for you.
Whether you look for inspiration to the gold and red colors of autumn (Scarlett, Aurelia, Blaze), to nature (Birch, Oakley, Juniper) or to mythological gods of harvest time (Ceres, Demeter), these names are enough to make a pumpkin spice lover out of anyone.
Parents looking for special significance in their child's name may be drawn to names influenced by the time of year.
“Many parents today are looking for baby names with meaning, and the season your baby is born can be a great place to find inspiration,” Redmond Satran told TODAY.com. "Autumn names that have become especially popular in recent years include Maple, Hazel, Forrest and Willow. The only Autumn name that sounds a bit dated is Autumn itself, but there are dozens of other choices to take her place.”
