for a girl? Be nice. Is it silly?

I really like this name.

But it has to be spelt Sunny otherwise it just looks really strange and mis spelt

It's fab!
My son had a boy in his class called sonny, I really liked it.

I think it’s ridiculous and way too cutesy. I also dislike Sonny for a boy. Sunnie looks like you can’t spell as well

Horrid.

Sunny is ok, Sunnie isn't.

It makes me think of Muslims or Cher.

Give Sunniva as the full name then it will be ok. She was a saint (and one of the Aberdeen-Shetland ferries when P&O ran that line, if I remember correctly).

Now run by Northlink so if you wanted a more up to date name you could go for Hrossey or Hjaltland which are the current ships - not such good nickname potential though.

St Sunniva - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunniva

I actually rather like Sunny - probably spelled like that, and I could come round to Sunnie. It’s not my style of name, though. It’s loads nicer than the demeaning Sonny for a boy and also lots better than other weather names for girls like Stormy or Tempest.

Awful for boy or girl.

ariamontgomery · 19/09/2019 20:21

Lovely! But also prefers Sunny spelling

Love Sonny for a boy..
Not keen on Sunny for a girl, definitely not spelt the way you've written.

My nickname is Sunny from my surname.. I’m not sure I’d love it as my name all the time to be honest..

No idea why I know this but Danny Dyer has a daughter called Sunny, that alone would put me off!
