NAME OF THE DAY: August

Today is the start of August, so I will talk about the month name: πŸ“…πŸ“›August

August is not only the eight month of the year in the Gregorian calendar, named in honor of Augustus Caesar, the first Roman emperor — but a word, an adjective that means: 'inspiring reverence or admiration; of supreme dignity or grandeur.'  

SSA data shows that 91% of the time August is used as a boy's name. August as a boy's name is in fact very popular, being at #88 on the Most Popular Baby Names in 2024. August is also used as a girl's name but it's not as popular and is at #910 on the Most Popular Baby Names for girls in 2024. The most Augusts can be found in New York and Louisiana.   

I like the name πŸ“›August, it's a month name which is always a fun name choice to give/have. πŸ‘πŸΎ But I do prefer August as a boy's name more than August for a girl's name. Maybe it's because I see 'Gus' in August and because of its origin name πŸ“›Augustus, that I see August more of a masculine name than a feminine one.
