[Opinions] WDYTO Summer?
This name has grown on me...when I first heard it I thought "what kind of name is Summer?" But now I love it. I'm just curious as to what you all think. Do you like it? Love it? Hate it? Know anyone with this name? Want to use it? What are some nice middle names for it...Thanks heaps!Bella

A bit strange to name a child after a season, but why not, it's not ugly.

I used to think the same as you about Summer, but now I really like it, it has a fresh and kind of unconcerned sound that I love.
I love Autumn too, and Winter is nice. Eva

It is not really my style, although I know a few Summers, one of whom spells her name Sommer.

I think it's nice. I knew a cute little girl named Summer--she had red hair and freckles. Her middle name was James, her mother's surname. I think these would sound nice:Summer Jane
Summer Julia
Summer Amanda
Summer Christina
Summer Amelia

I know a young woman (about 20 or so) named Summer. I worked with her. The name struck me as the sort of name that parents who were modern pagans of some sort would use, since it refers to nature.. and she was old enough that her parents could have grown up in the 1960s and been 'hippies.'For a kid named today, I don't think the pagan/hippie thing is so strong, nor negative at any rate. But I do think that that particular nature name has a really unusually sensuous sound, because of the stressed UH and the paired Ms. That's something that will lessen as the name gets more common (and as other nature-names that have concrete images attached get more common), I'd guess. It could also be influenced by the Summer that I knew, who was tall, willowy, a bit vain, and had a sort of flirtatious, languid way of carrying herself.I like the name. - chazda

I like it. Hubby would not even consider it.

To be honest, I really dislike this name. There's just something about the sound and the way it looks. I much, much, much prefer Winter or Autumn.
