For fun...my guy & I were talking about names & we love August for a girl.  I like August Kate, but Kate is taken by family.  Any suggestions for something similar?


Also... we are obsessed with Roman names (obviously) and our cats are named Augustus & Livia.  We call them Gus & Livie.

Anyway- fast forward 5-10 years, if I named my firstborn daughter August, would that be weird considering my cat's name?

yea I just... meh. I grew up on Augusta Avenue... I think I like strong names for girls and throwing an A on the end makes it seem...too girly.

Plus what I love is the "-st" sound on the end!

That is an argument I hear all the time, and it never ceases to sound totally sexist. Why can't girls be strong with girl's names? Why does femininity always automatically equal weakness?
