Sunny, short for...

(For a girl)

I like Sunday but not sure I can quite get DH there, he's not quite as brave as me. I've had a search, and not keen on suggestions of Soleil or Marisol as we're British, and it seems a little pretentious to me without European connections. Connections by meaning alone (e.g. saw Aurelia suggested because it means golden) are a bit of a stretch for us... it would need to have related sounds in it.

Any suggestions?

I had a friend called Sunni. It was short for Suniva.

And no way DH would agree to Sunny on its own, he likes 'proper' names on BC
