Even more winter names...

Without a doubt the most popular post in this blog is the 'Winter Names' post from June 2009. Due to its popularity I've decided to go again with even more winter themed names. People around the world think of winter in different ways and this will var the way you look at winter themed names. For me, when I think of winter I think of snow capped mountains and a magical white wonderland alongside cuddling up by a warm fire with a good book. The names below are inspired by my type of wintery dreams.

Enjoy!

Beaumont: A french boys name, originally used as a surname, meaning "beautiful mountain"

Bianca: A girls name that is a variant of Blanche meaning "white" or "fair"

Finnian: A boys name or Irish origin meaning "white"

Gwyneira: A girls name of Welsh origin combining Gwyn "White/fair" and Eira "snow". This also leaves open the possibility of using Gwen, Gwyn, Gwyneth.
