Category talk:English months used as given names

RFD discussion: March–May 2018
Is there... is there a benefit to having this, given that all twelve month names are in it? - -sche (discuss) 05:51, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Haha...ha...hahahahahahaHAAAA- ahem, delete . PseudoSkull (talk) 06:03, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * This really is funnier than it ought to be, and I'm not sure why. But yeah, delete. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 06:30, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

 * I’m surprised September is used as a given name. — Ungoliant (falai) 11:59, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * The only ones I've ever heard are April, May, and June. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 12:09, 9 March 2018 (UTC)


 * January Jones. But delete. — SGconlaw (talk) 15:34, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Huh. I always assumed that was a stage name. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 15:44, 9 March 2018 (UTC)


 * To be fair, some of these are quite rare, but I did check for and find citations of all of them. (In some cases, I noticed that surnames are also attested and need to be added; I'll try to do that later.) In addition to the common April, May, June and August, March is not that uncommon s man's name (maybe especially historically?) and July is a moderately common woman's name (possibly influenced by Julie?). And as a bookend to January Jones, there's actress December Ensminger. The rarest ones seem to be February and October, the latter of which surprised me (I would expect there would be enough goths and communists that it would be not quite as rare as it is). - -sche (discuss) 17:06, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * It seem like months are more often used as women's names (January, February, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December) than men's names (March, August, September). "February" and "June" might also be citable as a man's name and "March" as a woman's name, I'm not sure. - -sche (discuss) 17:27, 9 March 2018 (UTC)


 * January Schofield (a schizophrenic little girl) was regularly mentioned in the media a few years ago; she is the one mentioned in the cite I added at January. Equinox ◑ 19:33, 9 March 2018 (UTC)


 * When I created this category, I did not realise that in the end all months would be included. Whilst completely unintended, there is something satisfying about the fact that this category is provably complete. Following this great success, I will now turn my attention days of the week ending with "Y". John Cross (talk) 22:37, 9 March 2018 (UTC)


 * As an aside, the names of colours, capitalised, are often used as surnames (e.g. ), but is very rare. SemperBlotto (talk) 05:42, 12 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Theoretically this could contain months from other date systems used as names. DTLHS (talk) 17:01, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * That's true, e.g. Sivan, which is actually 's middle name. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 19:01, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Per utramque cavernam (talk) 22:40, 13 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Emptied. I need admin powers, guys. I'd get so much work done with a delete button. --Genecioso (talk) 13:19, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
