13 fresh and summery names perfect for your little August baby

August is such a dreamy month.

These late summer days really bring it home how much we love this season. The beach, the park, the sunshine – we live for this all year. And if you happen to be due your baby in August, how about letting the season and the month we are about to enter guide you when it comes to picking a name? What screams August, you say? Well, here are 13 names we think pretty much sum up this most summery of months: 1. Coral We all love the beach, and with a name like Coral, your little August girl will too. 2. Leo If your baby is born a Leo, you can name him after this fierce and passionate zodiac sign. 3. Tierra This name is associated with the earth – in Latin, Tierra literally means ‘earth, land.’ 4. Cove Surfery and beach-inspired for your little summer-born dude. 5. Talulah Native American name meaning "leaping water". 6. Azul Azul means 'blue' in Spanish, making it a name that automatically makes you think of the sea and blue skies, no? 7. Skye Blue, blue skies – how summer is that?! 8. Theros This Greek boy name literally means 'summer.' 9. Saylor We love this marine-inspired moniker for a little girl. 10. Dax This old English name means "water" and is also, it must be said, one cool moniker. 11. Bondi After Sydney's most famous of beaches. 12. Kai Appropriate, as this name's meaning is ‘sea’ in the Hawaiian. 13. Kyra Kyra is an Egyptian/Persian name meaning ‘sun’ and therefore all sorts of perfect for your August-born baby girl.
