Autumn: meaning and origin
Autumn comes from the name of the season, says Behind the Name, from the Latin autumnus, and it has been in general use since the 1960s. Wikipedia adds that census records show it in the US since at least the 1870s. It is a perfect pick for a fall birthday, Thanksgiving or back-to-school gift.
Nicknames and variants
Autumn has no standard short form in Behind the Name’s listing; its only cousin there is the French Automne. Most Autumns simply use the full name, which is already soft and easy to say.
Famous people named Autumn
Photographer Autumn de Wilde is known for her portraits of musicians, including album artwork for Elliott Smith, The White Stripes and Beck, and in 2020 she directed her first feature film, Emma. Autumn Reeser played Taylor Townsend on The O.C. and has led more than a dozen Hallmark Channel films.
Is Autumn a popular name?
Autumn has grown steadily. US Social Security data has it at 196th in the 1980s, 114th in the 1990s, 83rd in the 2000s and 71st in the 2010s, with more than 37,000 American girls named Autumn in each of the last two decades. Wikipedia says it has been in the US top 100 since 1997 and has been popular in Canada and the UK too.
Autumn trivia
Where you live may affect whether you meet an Autumn. Wikipedia says the name has historically been most common in the Northeastern US and Canada, regions full of deciduous trees whose leaves change color, and less common where the seasons are less dramatic. Autumn de Wilde, meanwhile, got her break with Beck: Wikipedia says that after she had heat stroke at Lollapalooza in 1995, he let her cool off in his tour bus, and she took his picture.

Any Autumn, of any age. The 6" x 9" size is roomy enough for proper writing and small enough for a handbag or school bag. With 160 plain lined pages there’s no fixed layout, so it can be a diary, a gratitude journal, a study notebook, a recipe book or a home for to-do lists. Notebooks tend to multiply in drawers, but one with her name on the front is instantly hers.
The little things that make it hers
There’s something about seeing your own name in print. It makes a notebook feel like it belongs to you, which is a good reason to fill it. It also means Autumn can pick hers out of a pile in a second, at school, at work or on the kitchen counter.
