麕麚 ('roebucks and stags': the first character has the sound 君. Liu Zhao's commentary to the Gongyang zhuan says: '麕 means a roe deer.' The second character has the sound 加. Guo's commentary to the Erya says: '麚 is a male deer.' The Shuowen says: 'Deer shed their antlers on the day of the summer solstice.' Both characters 麕 and 麚 are derived from 鹿 (deer) and are phono-semantic characters).
