Best Answer

The Old English is 'Sunnandaeg' meaning day of the sun. This comes from a Germanic language 'sunne daeg' which itself is a loan translation from Greek. The Apostle John refers to the 'Lords Day' (Kuriake Hemera) Kuriake meaning Lord's, which became the Greek word for Sunday and for Christians, Sunday becomes a Holy Day, the day of Christ's resurrection
