Baby Names

Summer?

What do you think of the name Summer? I came across it last night and dh likes it as well.

Re: Summer?

  • love it! as long as you don't have a summer baby... I'm not a fan of a baby girl named April born in April or a Summer baby named Summer etc.

    Aside form that Summer is a beautiful name!

  • It's NMS, but there's nothing wrong with it.

  • Its NMS, but I like it more then some of the names I hear today!

  • I'm not a huge fan of season or month names, or of cities/places used as names.

    However, of all the month/season names, Summer is probably the best.

  • It's a GP name for me and I do love it.  However, I don't know if I could actually use it.
  • love it! would use it but it doesn't work with our last name.

    I love Summer! But it doesn't work with our last name, and we have a dog named Summer. I wish I could have a baby Summer though.

  • I like it! It's on my list actually.

    But I'm the odd one out. I think it's only fitting for a summer baby.

    I do however think it needs a very classic/traditional/on the more common/boring side middle name.

    Elizabeth was our middle name pick for it.

  • Summer is pretty.

    I'm the opposite, I'd side eye a baby named Summer that was born in winter. That's just me though. Personally I don't like it. It has a stripper name feel to it...

  • It reminds me of a ditzy blonde girl. I don't think it ages well at all. What helps me is saying things like Aunt Summer and Grandma Summer and if it doesn't sound right then it's probably very childish.

    I think it's only fitting on a Summer baby too. I've always loved the name Summer, but having a baby due in January, I would kind of feel silly naming her Summer.

    Eh, NMS, but I wouldn't side eye it.

    This. Have to agree that Summer tends to be the bratty character's name in movies, shows, etc.

  • It's pretty. I think you need to have a spring or summer baby though. My neighbours have an Autumn.... Born in March. Doesn't really go IMO.

  • I'm not a huge fan of Seasons/Months as names. Hard for kids going through school. The one thing I will say as a huge advantage, there probably wont be multiple kids in her grade with that name!
