Origin

  • From the 1996 fantasy novel A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin, in which a young boy is called a "sweet summer child" by an old woman, since seasons last years in the novel's world and he has yet to experience winter. Later popularized by its use in the episode "Lord Snow" (2011) of the television adaptation Game of Thrones.
