I went to high school with a girl whose MN was January (guess which month she was born in?).

---

It's okay. I much prefer April, May, or June as far as month names go, but it isn't terrible.

---

January Rose
January Jane
January Kate
January May (heh-heh)
January Pearl
January Fay
January Violet

My birthday's in January! I always thought it would make a pretty name.

January Opal
January Odette
January Zelda
January Alix
January Luna
January Lusine / Lucine
January Eirlys
January Jessamine
January Lark
January Mabel
January Circe
January Alecto
January Sylvaine

Jones!

January Jones plays Betty Draper on Mad Men. That makes it even more awesome as a name. I love love love the idea of a Jan being a secret January!

January Philippa
January Annabel (so silvery)
January Caroline
January Bettina
January Scarlet
January Violet
January Petronel
January Lavinia
January Belinda
January Evelyn

January Hedwig - I think this might be my favourite but I don't know why, exactly. It just seems so cozy with itself
January Willa
January Lydia
January Marjolaine
January Maud
January Rosaline
January Rosamund
January Cora

I love the month of January - it is summer here - and can see it as a feminine name, surely, though I've never met a January.

I've been thinking about January a lot lately! It really appeals to me -- it calls to mind a pristine, completely frozen sheet of ice.

I love January as a first name. It's so neat and nice-sounding. It needs to be paired with a short, one-syllable middle name.

I like January "Jani". January Maybelle, January Zinnia, January Io, January Belle, January Pearl, January Louise

Love it.

I saw a video on youtube of that little girl. The name caught my attention too and I actually quite like it. I mean, I consider it a gp because I find it hard to imagine actually giving this name to my child...it just sounds too much like the month rather than a name. I feel this way about April too, actually. I can't really decide what I think of Jani as a nn. I think it could work on the right kind of person.

---

For a middle name I would probably pair it with a one syllable name...maybe a virtue name. January Hope comes to mind, although I'm not sure if I like it. January Jean is another one that popped into my head but the double 'J' might be a little much. Other random names that came to mind...

---

January Starr (sounds a little stripper-ish imho but Starr is a name I used to love as a kid so it kind of holds special meaning to me haha)

---

January Joan (sounds like a movie title, perhaps? lol)

---

January Laurel (not one syllable but it just came to mind)
January Lotus
