Meaning of Sumaira
Sumaira is a Quranic name for girls that means “night companion in conversation”, a beloved friend who stays up with her friends to talk. It is the diminutive form of the name Samira. It is not directly mentioned in the Quran, but its root is S-M-R which is used in the Quran in 19:52 when speaking of a group of people in Makkah who made fun of the Quran at the time of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah upon him:
behaving arrogantly, you would talk senselessly [about the Quran] far into the night.

@1: Sumera is another spelling of Sumaira (the name above). It can also mean “dark night” like you said, but there is nothing wrong with the meaning. The names Sameer, Sumair, Sameera and Sumairah all have the same meaning and are very common Muslim names, therefore there is no reason to be worried.

If the meaning of the name is like making fun out of the prophet or Quran or anything bad, will you have the features of that meaning? And the baby which will grow up, will the meaning of their name be their personality? Like features for example?

My name is Sumaira, and it means brownish. I have met three Sumaira and they all have brown skin tone including mine. Every one in my family is light skin tone except me. Does my name has to do anything with my skin tone? Please answer.
