I named my son August Everett. I don’t care for Augustus, but that’s just my opinion (we all know what they say about opinions). Auggie is turning a year old on august 31, although he was supposed to be born in september, he just had to claim the month of August for his own. I love saying his name, people compliment us on the name often. I think his name will be well received. The name, August, makes me think of an intelligent, warm, and empathic personality. He could be the life of the party as an extravert or someone who prefers a small and close group of friends like his mom— an introvert, he could be a creative writer, or more analytical. I can see him successful, a pioneer in his field of interest. I can see him being an entrepreneur like me and his dad. The name perfectly suits my mischievous redheaded sweetheart. I can’t wait to see him and his twin sister Evelyn grow.

We’d love to have a third child, we’re trying now! Our third will be Marigold (Goldie) or Julian. Other names on our list were: Josette, Grant, Rosalind, Nathaniel, and Claire.

I wish you all the best with your little August! I think it’s a fabulous name for either a boy or a girl. If you love it, don’t doubt yourself— go for it!
