In this post, we’ll explore a variety of September-inspired names for both boys and girls, each with its own special origin and significance. If you loved learning about the traits of September babies in our last post, “8 Fascinating Traits of September Babies: What Makes Them Stand Out,” you’re sure to find the perfect name here to match those wonderful qualities.

September-inspired baby names

September-Inspired Baby Girl Names:

  1. Autumn: Inspired by the season that begins in September, Autumn is a name that symbolises change, beauty, and maturity. Autumn is a lovely feminine name of Latin origin, meaning “fall” or “season of harvest.” The name is rooted in the Latin word autumnus, which also signifies the transition into this beloved season. If you’re expecting a fall baby or simply adore the rich colours and cosy vibes of autumn, this name is a perfect choice.
  2. Hazel: Hazel is a beautiful, earthy name inspired by the autumnal colours of September. It also refers to the hazel tree, which is associated with wisdom and protection.
  3. Amber: From the Arabic, ambar, meaning “jewel”. Also from the Old French, meaning “amber-coloured”. Amber is a warm, golden name, just like the colours of autumn. This name also represents the fossilised tree resin, which has been valued for centuries for its beauty and healing properties.
  4. Sapphire: September’s birthstone, Sapphire, symbolises wisdom, virtue, and good fortune. This sparkling gem name is perfect for a baby girl who is destined to shine.

September-Inspired Baby Boy Names:

  1. Knox: is a strong, modern name that can be linked to the autumnal equinox, which falls in late September. The name evokes a sense of balance, harmony, and the changing seasons, making it a fitting choice for a September baby boy.
  2. Harry: if you want your child’s name to be inspired by ruby royalty, go with Harry. Prince Harry, who was born on the 15th of September, embodies a blend of regal charm and down-to-earth appeal. This classic name has a rich history and carries a strong association with nobility, making it a great choice for your little prince.
  3. Medi: A Welsh-originating boy’s name that translates to “September”.
  4. Hunter: The fall season is also hunting season, and that’s where the baby boy name Hunter finds its inspiration. 

Baby Gender-Neutral Names:

  1. Aki: is a versatile name with roots in multiple cultures, including Japanese, Finnish, and Nigerian. In Japanese, Aki means “born in the autumn” or “ancestor,” making it an ideal choice for a September baby. This short and sweet name carries the essence of the season and a sense of heritage, perfect for parents looking for something unique yet meaningful.
  2. Aster: a gender-neutral name of Greek origin, means “star.” This name not only carries a celestial charm but also ties in with September’s birth flower, the aster, known for its star-like appearance. In ancient times, asters were considered sacred by Greek and Roman deities, symbolising love and wisdom. Aster is a strong yet gentle name, suitable for a little boy destined to shine.
  3. Indigo: Inspired by the deep blue colour of sapphires, Indigo is a bold and vibrant name that captures the richness of September’s birthstone.
  4. Forrest: is a name inspired by the natural world, making it an ideal choice for a September baby born as the trees begin to change colours. Symbolising growth, stability, and connection with nature, Forrest evokes the peacefulness of autumn and the beauty of the outdoors. It’s a strong, earthy name that fits perfectly with the season of harvest.

Exploring More September-Inspired Names

For even more name inspiration, you can dive deeper into names that are tied to autumn, the harvest, or other symbols of September. These names can help you find that perfect balance between tradition and individuality, ensuring your baby’s name is as unique as they are.

In the end, choosing a name for your baby is a deeply personal decision, and finding one that resonates with the season of their birth can make it even more meaningful. I hope this list has sparked some ideas and that you find the perfect name that reflects the beauty of September and the love you have for your little one.

    I haven’t been posting much lately, because behind the scenes, I’ve been pouring all my energy into something that truly matters to me.

    The book is finally done. Uploaded. Ready.

    But this phase? It’s a different kind of work.

    Now, I’m reaching out. Emailing, writing, pitching, trying to place this book into hands and platforms that could really help share it.
    
Because I believe in it.
    
Not for me, but for the voices within it.

    Milk Tales isn’t just a book.
    
It’s a mirror for mothers who felt unseen.
    
A space for stories that deserve to be heard.

    So no, I’m not “doing it all.” (Also becasue I have my business to run)
    
But I’m doing what matters, with heart.

    🤍
    P.S. If you know someone who might want to feature, share, or support this project, I’d love to connect.

    After three rounds of printing...
    
three envelopes opened with hope...
    
and three quiet disappointments!
    
I almost didn’t film this one.

    But I did.
    
Because this time, it felt different.

    The small tweaks, the colours, the paper,
    they’re still not exactly how I envisioned them.
    
The photo quality isn’t perfect.
    
But the message they carry? That part is.

    And that’s what matters most.

    It took four proofs.
    
Four rounds of edits, questions, and “maybe this isn’t ready.”
    
Still seen through a critical lens…
    
but this time, I finally let myself feel it: Pride.

    Milk Tales is a book made with love, with stories that deserve to be seen.
    
And releasing it during World Breastfeeding Week couldn’t feel more right.

    ✨ Available from the 1st of August.
    
I can’t wait to share it with you.

    One thing’s for sure: this book is one of the things I’m most proud of.

    But the process?
    
Cry. Laugh. Repeat.

    I’ve reviewed it so many times I’ve lost count.

    And sometimes… I genuinely don’t know what I meant in a line I once thought was brilliant.

    Creating Milk Tales wasn’t just about photography or stories, it was about pouring my whole heart (and probably a few brain cells) into something that matters.

    Because this book means something. To me. And, I hope, to the mums who read it.

    Coming soon.

    Drop a 🤍 if you’re excited too, I can’t wait to share more with you.

    Not all breastfeeding stories start with ease.
    
And some carry more than we can see.

    This wasn’t just a photoshoot, it was a moment to honour a deeper journey.
    
One that mixed pain and joy. Loss and healing.
    
Feeding her baby… and feeding her soul.

    The plasters were symbolic. So was the baby’s breath.
    
But the emotion? That was all her.
    
And honestly, it stayed with me.

    If this speaks to you, know you’re not alone.
    
We carry so much. And sometimes, we need someone to see it.

    My book will hold this story and many others like it.
    If it speaks to your heart, save it. Or share it with someone who needs to feel seen. 🤍

    Natalie and Sara aren’t just sisters-in-law, they’ve walked side by side through the early days of motherhood, holding space for each other’s struggles and joys.

    This session was a reminder that we don’t have to do it alone. In motherhood, as in business. That when stories are shared, healing begins.
    
That sometimes, the most powerful thing we can offer… is simply to be there.

    And that’s the heart of my book: sharing stories, truths and experiences that make us feel less alone.
    
If you’ve ever felt supported by another mum, tag them below. Let them know they mattered.
    
And if you’re curious to read more stories like this one… keep your eyes peeled for news about the book release coming very soon!
