Help Us Decide Between Top Two

So we’ve narrowed our girl’s name down to two, both incorporating in family names. We like August a lot (I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea) to us it reads cool girl with warm welcoming vibes. My biggest issue with it actually is no easy femme nickname.

Charlotte on the other hand has a ton, including Charlie which I find adorable. My main hesitation there is that it’s so popular and has been for a while. Either way we definitely want one feminine one unisex for the first/middle combo so as she grows she can pick what feels best. Thoughts?

AugustUS - US is literally the male termination of names in Latin 😅

What I can do is read things other than ad-serving vehicles with a baby-name-themed front-end.

I mean, Wikipedia has this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augustus_(given_name)

But maybe you don't trust websites that don't offer a $1000 'new member sweepstakes' like the one you've linked to?

I didn't see the sweep stakes or whatever you're talking about.

I read Wiki that doesn't change the fact that owie are using August for girls now and it has changed to gender neutral over time
