It stands for "Group"
So G8 Summit = "Group of Eight Summit"

You know, I don't know for sure. But it's a good question. Could it be that "G" in G8 means "Global" as those countries having global reach in their affairs, economic, political, and social? That might be it. Hope you find out.

Probably somebody had this light bulb of a thought - the glorious 8. Since most of them consider themselves glorious.
