6-letter words with M as the 3rd letter and M as the 4th letter

The pattern __MM__ fixes a doubled middle pair, leaving two letters open on each side. SUMMER, COMMON, and HAMMER show familiar shapes, while ZIMMER heads the scoring examples at 19 points. Fourteen matches belong to the common-word group, with 90 definitions available across the full set.

The doubled M pattern at a glance

• 124 matches put M in both the third and fourth positions.
• SUMMER, COMMON, and HAMMER are recognizable examples.
• ZIMMER scores 19 points, the top total listed.
• R closes 32 matches; D closes 22 and S closes 19.

Which words have M doubled in the middle?

SUMMER and HAMMER end in R, while COMMON ends in N. COMMIT and SUMMIT shift the final letters again, but keep the same MM core. These examples make the fixed pair easy to verify without assuming that the open slots follow one common shape.

Ending counts offer a useful second filter: R appears 32 times, D 22, and S 19. If the last letter is unknown, R is the strongest first trial. The doubled M anchors the pattern; the final two letters do most of the sorting.

For a quick solve, mark the MM pair first and then use the last letter to sort candidates. R is the most productive ending in these counts, but the word still needs both outside pairs to fit.

What should you keep in mind?

Fourteen of the 124 matches meet the common-word cutoff, and 90 have definitions. SUMMER, COMMON, and COMMIT are recognizable anchors; the wider set includes less routine forms.

Check your game’s word list before relying on an unfamiliar entry. The difference between the common group and the full tournament set is substantial. A doubled pair gives a strong visual clue, but it does not tell you whether the surrounding letters form a familiar word.
