Thanks to rap powerhouse Megan Thee Stallion, we just had ourselves an iconic Hot Girl Summer. Now that it’s officially over, people are offering takes on what theme fall should have. Christian Girl Autumn looked like the frontrunner for a while, if only because there weren’t any challengers—but now the competition has really taken off.

Grand Theft Autumn, inspired by a 2003 Fall Out Boy song, is one strong contender.

Even with this much of a head start, though, there’s still some stiff competition. Some fans torn between Grand Theft Autumn and Thotumn for this fall.

Thotumn seems to be a fan favorite and, as both a pun and a sequel to hot girl Summer, it’s going to be hard to beat.

Some alternative suggestions, however, are just as magnificent and deserve our equal consideration.

To no one’s surprise, the goths and witches are out in full force.

Sad Girl Autumn seems to be a thing, too. Hopefully it references more of a melancholy aesthetic than actual depression but, then again, the world is a bit of a trash fire right now—quite literally, considering the state of the Amazon.
