after reading your post Arthur, I began to think, why is spring called spring,
a quick search and heres what I found
Spring”, referring to a season rather than the many other meanings of the word, first popped up in the 16th century. Starting in the 14th century, this time of year was called “springing time” and then in the 15th century this got shortened to “spring-time”, and then further shortened in the 16th century to just “spring”. The 14th century “springing time” came about in reference to plants “springing” from the ground and the like. Before the season was called these things, it was called “Lent” in Old English.

Autumn arrives in early morning, but spring at the close of a winter day.
