I always think days of the week are weird, whether she's born on it or not, but it do quite like it

Tropicana123 · 01/07/2018 09:42

I love it ! Along with Tuesday also

EssentialHummus · 01/07/2018 09:46

I'm not a fan. One, I don't like Sundays; two, it makes me think of the Addams Family.

ParkerPen · 01/07/2018 09:47

Just weird.

It's the least bad of the name days, because at least there's Sunny for a nickname, but it's still very strange.

Just why? There are plenty of nice names out there. Why do you have to choose a word rather than one of them?

Remember, you're naming a person, not a baby.

Namethatchange · 01/07/2018 09:47

I love it but also like it with the spelling Sundae (which was my dogs name Grin)

ApocalypseNowt · 01/07/2018 09:48

I don't know why some days of the week are acceptable as names and some aren't but that's the way it is.

If I heard of a child called Sunday I'd assume you were a) religious or b) a bit try hard. Sorry! Blush

Itchytights · 01/07/2018 09:49

Same as Fern McCanns baby.

Can’t you think of something else?

There are so many other names...

Then again, Friday might be better? Or Thursday?

Hmm
Lostalldirection · 01/07/2018 09:51

Had to google Fearne McCann - don't do reality tv nonsense so no connection there.

No religious connection either...

Just always loved it, but do love Tuesday too :)

Made me think Nicole Kidman, Sunday Rose

TokyoSushi · 01/07/2018 09:55

No

Lweji · 01/07/2018 09:58

It will just be used on "Who's on third" or "over to Captain Over, over".

No.

Think of teenagers asking what they're doing on Sunday...

SilverySurfer · 01/07/2018 10:03

No.

Takfujuimoto · 01/07/2018 10:11

I personally love it and also Tuesday and Wednesday as names.
I meet a lovely woman from SA once, her name was Happy Sunday! She was so cheerful every time I met with her and she had such a wonderful outlook on life, she seemingly rubbed off on anyone she talked to.

HJL2506 · 01/07/2018 10:19

I do actually think it's a nice name but my first thoughts were of Ferne. But who cares 🤷‍♀️

rainingcatsanddog · 01/07/2018 10:35

I like the sound of seasonal and monthly names (April, Summer, Autumn..) and think that Sunday would be a name that I would grow to like even though at first it sounds a little weird. Monday would never be liked as a name for obvious reasons.

TatianaLarina · 01/07/2018 10:37

No

LexieLulu · 01/07/2018 10:43

I always find days weird, like if the baby was born on Wednesday would you call them Sunday?

Rizzokicks · 01/07/2018 10:49

I like it!

RedDwarves · 01/07/2018 10:58

It's fine.

But Wednesday is awesome. Wednesday Addams is the best namesake, too.

saucepotty · 01/07/2018 11:05

Why is Winter a boys name and Summer a girls name?

Guacamoledip · 01/07/2018 11:09

Winter isn’t a boys name? It’s on our list for our daughter

deptfordgirl · 01/07/2018 11:20

Reminds me of towie Fern's dd. Quite nice though.

deptfordgirl · 01/07/2018 11:20

I think Winter is unisex. I know a little boy called it.

peachypetite · 01/07/2018 11:21

Weird.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 01/07/2018 13:57

It's a big 'sleb', but nice for a middle name.
