In honour of the beautiful weather we are enjoying in Scotland at the moment today's name is Summer. Summer is the most popular of the season names and probably the most usable (closely followed by Autumn). It would be a great name for a summer baby but I also don't think it would seem out of place on a baby born at any time of year.
If you are looking for a name with good connotations, Summer has bag loads. It makes you think of holidays, warm weather, sunshine, beaches and any number of other wonderful summery things.
There are several pop culture references which have helped Summer to grow in popularity. The most obvious of these is probably Rachel Bilson's character in the O.C., Summer Roberts. There is the American actress Summer Glau who played River Tam in the T.V. series Firefly and the British actress Summer Strallen who, among other things, played the popular character of Summer Shaw in Hollyoaks. There are also characters named Summer in the films Napoleon Dynamite, Definitely Maybe and, of course, (500) Days of Summer.
