Sunaṭa (सुनट) refers to a “(good) dancer”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.30 (“The Celebration of Pārvatī’s Return”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “[...] In the meantime, Śiva, favourably disposed to His disciples and prone to divine sports, assumed the guise of a dancer and approached Menakā. He held the blowing horn in his left and the drum in his right hand. He wore a red cloth and had the wallet suspended behind his back. In the guise of a dancer (sunaṭa-rūpa) with the skill of dancing and singing, he danced well and sang many songs in sweet voice. [...]”.
