Happy April, and don't forget to consider it as a baby name! April is Latin, meaning "to open," and wasn't used as a given named until the 20th century. It could have been inspired by usage of the French name Avril, a variant of the Old English name Averil, meaning "boar battle." Originally, April came from the Latin word for "second," because at first it was the second month in the year. April symbolizes spring and the freshness and florals that mark this time.
This was very popular since about the 70s, and is still slowly decreasing in popularity. In 2010 there were 832 baby girls named April, ranking #378. Be sure to get creative with nicknames for April, as the obvious choice is "ape." Perhaps Avi or Rilla?
"April showers bring May flowers"
Also, just a reminder that the Social Security Administration's list of 2011's top 1000 baby names is just around the corner!
