From Proto-Finnic *suvi, from Proto-Uralic *suŋe (compare Northern Sami sakŋat (“be thawed”), Nganasan тәӈәә (təŋəə)). Replaced in the standard language in the 19th century with kesä, which was traditionally used in the eastern dialects (as opposed to suvi, which was traditionally a Western Finnish word).
