How Summer sounds
Two syllables make Summer compact enough for everyday use but long enough to carry some melody. A vowel ends Summer, which keeps its final beat soft and sung rather than clipped. For the ear, Summer is soft, round and flowing, which the scheme counts as a water sound. Summer is neither trendy nor rare in U.S. birth records, which makes it a settled, comfortable choice. U.S. birth records list Summer overwhelmingly for girls.
The Saju view
Because Summer begins with S, Z, SH, CH or J, the system counts its first sound as metal, and the first sound weighs double. If your Four Pillars show little metal, Summer is worth a closer look: its metal sound is the kind the tradition recommends for a shortage. Summer supports water from behind: its metal sound is the traditional source of that element. Charts crowded with metal tend to look elsewhere, as the metal sound of Summer would tip the balance further.

The astrology view
In astrology a water-sounding name like Summer is a close match for Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, and a supportive one for Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. Summer is a less natural fit for fire and air signs, whose elements differ from its water sound.
