Re: Summer and Autumn
in reply to a message by Ismene
I really like Summer-on-a-boy as a dog name. It's a little less usable for humans, but someone could probably pull it off.
Autumn is confusing, because the season seems more 'boyish' but the name itself seems more 'girlish'. I'll definitely name to think on that one. I don't even know why it seems feminine... it's a season, so it doesn't have a gender itself; it's got the Au like in August and other male names, and it doesn't end with "a" or any other "female" traits. But somehow it just seems feminine.
