9/10. I think it's beautiful and it has an awesome meaning! It has been in my top 10. I didn't rate it 10/10 due to people possibly not knowing how to pronounce it.

I like how it looks and how I imagine it would be pronounced, but since I don't actually know the pronunciation I can't say for sure. The meaning is beautiful. I'd give it a 7, but it could go up or down depending on pronunciation.

Meh. It’s kinda heavy and unappealing and not really my type, but I guess I like the meaning. I’ll give it a 5/10.

I really like the look of Synnøve and Synnöve, though.

I absolutely adore Sunniva. Unfortunately, with my surname it sounds like the phrase "sun of a gun" when pronounced phonetically.

I kind of like it, but can’t really imagine in it on a real person.

7/10. It sounds nice and the meaning is pretty cool. It makes for both a good first and a good middle name, though I'd probably use it as a middle.

I like it. Maybe 6.5 or 7

It's a celestial meaning but it sounds very earthy to me and can go with a lot of "rougher" names.

I'd rate it highly if I lived in Scandinavia; 7,5/10. Bt in the English-speaking world it would attract such a variety of pronunciations that it wouldn't be worth the effort; so, 4/10.

I know it's a name, but I've never encountered it anywhere but on BTN. And for some reason, Sunniva really, really sounds like a car model. The Ford Sunniva, perhaps.
