    I'm due with my second baby girl 10/6 ~ and am still having trouble deciding a name. My husband and I both agreed on Autumn. But for the middle name he wants Blaze.( It's actually a type of maple tree.) I think it's a pretty name but to me Blaze sounds masculine. To a few relatives it sounds "stripperish." He says the only other option he'll go with is Noel ( after his sister). Sunshine was what I came up with but hubby will not agree. I guess what I would like from you folks is an opinion for either Autumn Blaze, Autumn Noel, or Autumn sunshine

    I personally like Autumn Noel, but I always stray away from some of the more non-traditional "hippie" sounding names...

    I had a friend in high school whose name was Autumn Sunshine. Her last name also started with an S, so her initials were A.S.S. Heehee...... I know, we were not mature about it then either....... :H

    My husband and I also had Sunshine as one of our choices (Delilah Sunshine), but we went with Rayne (Bella Rayne) instead.

    So anyway, I'm kinda partial to Sunshine, but the other two are nice too.

    And~congratulations!!!! :)

    Wow I can't believe you suggested that~ that was my Mom's middle name( Joy) ~ I didn't know it was a flower! It sounds beautiful together and it would be suiting as well. My other daughter is Jaicee Rae ~ Ray after my husbands grandfather, so we were actually thinking of naming this child after someone in my family. Thank you~ I'll run it by my old man

    All my children have Celtic short names (4 letters or less) as they have a long surname.
    Also the meanings are very important more so that the actually name for me
