What does Summer mean?
2 syllablesOrigin: English

Summer is the English word for the warmest season of the year, drawn from the Old English "sumor." It's been used as a given name since the mid-20th century, borrowed straight from the season.

Summer has a bright, sunny feel, light and a little carefree. It suits a pet with a warm, easygoing nature who seems to bring good weather with them.
