Midsummer Day is the the first of August.
June 21 is the start of summer not the middle of summer.
BTW Midwinter is February 1.

June 21 is the start of summer not the middle of summer. It seems the Anglo-Saxons and other medieval Europeans did not use the term "spring" until the later Middle Ages. Lent was what they called the season that followed winter. Summer began in the middle of what we now call spring.
