Sunny for our 3rd little girl?

[lullabelle85]

Sunny....We both really like it, we want something different but not too out there, also like Belle, bluebell.....middle names on the shortlist Violet, Beatrix, Alba. Would love to hear opinions.....

Say

Sunny and Bonnie are really far too similar.

I love it. I'd like to be called Sunny.

Wouldn't most girls names sound odd on a hulking great teenage footballer?? :)

I think of Sonny, or even Sonny Jim, when I hear it, so I wouldn't go there.

Bluebell works with your other girls, or how about something like India / Indigo (shorten to Indie, if you like)?

I know an Alba and she's ace, I really like the name!

It's ok. Prefer Sonny for a boy.

Wouldn't most girls names sound odd on a hulking great teenage footballer?

No? The girls football team near me don't sound weird with their names?

Sunny is a nick nickname but I'm not sure of it as a full name especially when you have a Bonnie. Bonnie and Sunny are very similar to my ears, perhaps too similar for sisters?

I love your middle names, they're great. I also love Belle.

I meant Sunny is a nice nickname.

I prefer Summer to Sunny, lovely idea though.

What about Soleil?

I think that's a beautiful name.

Lola, Bonnie and Trixi aka Beatrix Belle

Sunny is too similar to Bonnie.

Boney M.

Sunny is terrible. It's the kind of cutesy-pie 'I'm a bit zany, me' name Jamie Oliver would call his child. Alba or Beatrix are lovely.

I actually like the names Jamie Oliver and his wife chose for their children :))

I don't like it I am afraid. I think it is very hard to wear a name which implies a set personality.

Alba is lovely.

Oh I love it especially with your other daughters names.

Both my children have what can be classed as nicknames, that are names in their own right too. They also both have unisex names, with the opposite sex spelling
I like quirky, fun names.

I think names grow with a person, I'm yet to meet an adult who's name did t fit after I'd got to know them properly.

Go for it OP, I personally have a very unusual name, and I love it, it's a great conversation starter.

Love Sunny for a girl, it's makes me smile (which is kind of the point!)Bonnie was on my list but doesn't go with our surname.

There is a Sunny in DS2's daycare and she's gorgeous. It's quirky and goes with your other DDs' names. Go for it!

You don't choose names based on assumptions of their character (not understanding the "she couldn't be a grief counselor or skin cancer specialist" comment! Who the fuck says so?! She can be what she wants to be, her name isn't going to hold her back)

My best friend works with a lovely Filipino couple at her hospital - he's called Happy, she's called Sunny. Bloody fantastic!

I don't normally like unusual names but I do like Sunny. I think you should use it. :)

Names can and do hold people back - just look at Talllulahdoesthehulafromhawaii, or whatever that famous case was. Are you really telling me that that mouthful would be regarded just as equally on a CV as say, Sarah or Emma?

Of course Sunny is nowhere near as ridiculous as that - but op I still think using it as a nickname and choosing a different name (doesn't even have to be anything like Sunny) would be better.

People will assume it's Sonny and a boy.

I'd go with Violet.

I know a Sunny, which is a nn for Susannah. It suits her. (she's about 15 or 16).
