October
Meaning of October
October is a Latin-rooted gem—drawn from “octo,” meaning “eight,” back when the Roman calendar started in March—and it carries all the cozy page-turning magic of its namesake month. On a girl, October feels like stepping into a landscape of crimson leaves, bonfire sparks, and freshly baked pumpkin bread: familiar yet thrilling, classic yet a touch rebellious. Parents who choose it often say they love its balance of strength and softness—the sturdy consonants up front giving way to that gentle, storybook “-ber” ending. Culturally, October whispers of harvest moons, Halloween imagination, and sweater-weather beginnings, making it perfect for families who treasure change and possibility. Though it hovers modestly around the 900-range in U.S. popularity charts, that very rarity lets a little one named October stand out—much like a single golden leaf against a clear blue sky.
