Meaning & origin

Sundee is a rare given name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1951. It is a respelling of the English word Sunday, similar to other day-of-the-week names used for girls. The name saw its highest usage during the 1960s, peaking in 1968. Despite reaching periodic modest use, it has never ranked in the top 1000 names in any year, and its trajectory has remained stable over the decades. The name is most often given to girls.

Sundee is a modern respelling of the English word Sunday, typically used as a given name. It follows the pattern of adapting day-of-the-week names like Sunday or Summer. The name was most popular in the 1960s, with a peak in 1968.
