Warm summer days stretching into long summer nights. Lemonade. Sun dresses. Crickets chirping at night. That’s what I’ve always thought summer should feel like. I live in San Francisco though, so my summer days are usually foggy and improved by a warm sweater. We get our summer weather in October.
No matter what your summer is like, June 21st marks the summer solstice – the official beginning of summer and the longest day of the year. If you’re having a summertime baby, you may want some seasonal inspiration. Here’s a list of some lovely baby name ideas for summer babies:
- AKIRA – (Japanese) “dawn”
- AUGUST
- AURORA – (Latin) “dawn”
- DAWN
- DAY
- HORATIA / HORATIO – (Latin) “timekeeper”
- JULY
- JUNE
- KIA – (African) “season’s start”
- NATSU – (Japanese) “born in summer”
- NYSSA – (Greek) “beginning”
- ORIANA / ORIA – (Latin) “sunrise”
- ROXANE / ROXIE – (Persian) “dawn”
- SABA – (Arabic) “morning”
- SEASON
- SOLSTICE
- SOMERSET – (English) “summer town”
- SUMMER
- SUN / SUNNY / SUNSHINE
- THEROS – (Greek) “summer”
- USHA – (Sanskrit) “sunrise”
- ZORA – (Slavic) “dawn”
Ask me on a different day and I may have a different favorite, but despite being a little on the nose for a summertime baby, June and Summer are names I have always loved. What about you? What season do you think inspires the best baby names?
Happy naming ♥ Amanda
I am thrilled to see Horatio listed! Another favorite summer name of mine might be Somerled “summer traveler.”

Hi Enny- It’s a cute name! Is it short for something? If not, the closest I’ve found is Ena/Enya/Ennya, which is Irish and means “fire” – which is a great meaning!
