Etymology

    Suggested to be a nominalization of a lost adjective, possibly from *sunnaz (“sunny”) +‎ *-ô (agent suffix), from Proto-Indo-European *sh₂un-wó-s, from *sóh₂wl̥ ~ *sh₂wéns (“sun”) +‎ *-wós,[1] or leveled from earlier paradigm *sundō ~ *sunᵈnaz, from *sundaz (“sunny”) +‎ *-ô (agent suffix). from *sh₂un-tó-s, from *sóh₂wl̥ ~ *sh₂wéns +‎ *-tós.[2] Feminine *sunnǭ (“sun”) perhaps constructed in an opposing gender pair with masculine *mēnô (“moon”), akin to Latin cognate sōl m (“sun”) and lūna f (“moon”).[3][4]
