There is a secretary in my high school's main office named Sunday, and she is pretty much the only faculty member that I know of in our school with an interesting name. I really think it could be a cool name if you're born on Sunday. :)
I don't even like Sundays. For me, the day has, for several years, been like a hangover day without a hangover. It's been a boring and tiring day on which I've had a heavy and a weak, tired feeling, like I'm anemic and dehydrated and undernourished all at the same time. So, I wouldn't want the name of my daughter to remind me of typical Sundays when I'm not on vacation and all days are alike. Beides, the name is weird and tacky, like all week day names. Come on, imagine a parent calling their child: ''Sunday, could you come over here?'' There would be jokes and embarrassments.
I think Sunday is nice. It's very "sunny" and positive. In fact, Sunny would be a cute nickname. I think of a bright, cherubic little girl with rosy cheeks and blonde curls. I don't know how well this name would "age" though. Funny, because I agree with the person who wrote about the hungover feeling of Sundays - I don't even like the day itself, but the name has a good vibe, a very happy energy.
Also, I think it's silly that Nicole Kidman named her daughter Sunday Rose when she was born on a MONDAY! I hate that, when people are named Autumn or June and born in February.

An old nursery rhyme:
Monday's child is fair of face, Tuesday's child is full of grace, Wednesday's child is full of woe, Thursday's child has far to go, Friday's child is loving and giving, Saturday's child works hard for his living, And the child that is born on the Sabbath day Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.
(Obviously, Sunday was traditionally referred to as the "Sabbath day".)
I would so burst out laughing if I were at a grocery store and some mother yells to their daughter "Sunday, let's go!" I cannot picture that happening. However, I can picture a mother yelling "Audrey, let's go!" or "Claire, let's go!"
Remembering Sunday is one of my favourite All Time Low songs so I wouldn't mind using as a name- it's much more softer than the other days of the week and I really don't see what the issue with using it as a name is. You here girls called April don't you? So why not Sunday? XD :)
Sunday is a stupid name. It's a day of the week, for crying out loud, and it reminds me of sundaes. Plus I've heard people using it because Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman had to use it.
