Winter and Summer are my favorite. Winter is more along the lines of what I would actually use, on account of how pedestrian Summer is. Winter wins out with me solely for the eccentricity points alone, but I like both quite a lot. Autumn is fine in theory, but the only 2 girls/ women I have known with it were 1.) a very bratty Mean Popular Girl in School growing up, and 2.) A woman in my community with a hot temper that has been arrested several times for assault. So... it doesn't secure the warm and fuzzy feelings to me that the season implies. I know it appeals to some though.. so good for them. For whatever it is worth: autumn is still my favorite season outside of naming. Wynter makes me want to gouge my eyes out for having been cursed with its appearance. What a disgrace. Spring never makes me think of the season, or the pool of water, it always makes me first think of a mattress spring. Weird, I know. But I just think of the coils in an old bed and think "Why would anyone think a type of metal coil is a name??". I also think of spring as in the verb. A fun word mind you, to describe springing into action, implying a certain level of enthusiasm or at least fortitude, but again, not a name or a Word-Name in sound to me. Like naming a kid "Leap" or "Jump".
