The month of August is a great month to be due and a great month to celebrate a birthday. Here are our top August-inspired baby names that are each perfect for your due-in-August baby.

Poppy

Poppy is one of the birth flowers for August. Poppies are beautiful flowers but they also have links to medicinal purposes and are the remembrance flowers for WWI. Poppies represent more than just beauty; they are powerful and the name therefore represents a combination of strength, honour and beauty.

Augustus

Featuring “August” within it and nicknames of “Gus” or “Austin”, Augustus is a powerful name. Meaning “majectic” and with famous links dating all the way back to Ceasar Augustus the first emperor of ancient Rome, Augustus is a brilliant choice of name for your August Prince.

Peach or Peaches

A tasty summer fruit that becomes ripe for picking in August making it the sweetest name for your little summer baby.

Summer
