Sumner is a surname. It originates from the English-language word that is spelt, in modern English, summoner, denoting a person who serves a summons. In Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, one of the characters is a summoner ; a Middle English spelling is Somonour. Other spellings include Sumpner, Somner, and Summoner.
