June is the sixth month, when summer begins. In June, June weather, the first of June.
The solstice falls in it, so the longest day of the northern year is a June date — and the earliest sunrise is a few days before it, which surprises people. It is named after Juno, the Roman goddess, though an alternative account names it for the younger men, the iuniores.

June comes from Middle English June, from Juyn, from Old French juin. From Middle English June, june, re-Latinised variants of earlier Middle English Juyn, juyng, from Old French juing, juin, from Latin iūnius, the month of the goddess Iuno (“Juno”), perhaps from Proto-Indo-European h₂yéwHō, from Proto-Indo-European h₂óyu (“vital force, youthful vigor”).
