The weather is starting to change, there’s a chill in the air, the leaves are getting crisp and brown and for us in the studio that means one thing… Autumn babies. And with Autumn babies, comes Autumn baby names! There are so many autumnal themed names that you can choose for your baby and we’ve compiled a list of our favourite seasonal names to get you inspired. Have you considered any of these names for your October and November babies?

Opal – This traditionally female name means ‘precious gem’ and is the official birthstone of the month of October.

Autumn – it is technically the start of autumn, right?. We love this literal take on an Autumn inspired name.
