wonderfulness

State of amazement

Wonderfulness is the quality of being wonderful—remarkably good, delightful, or admirable.

The word carries a slightly childlike or earnest tone, as if ordinary praise weren't enough: The sheer wonderfulness of the day made me want to stay outside forever.

It appears less often than wonderful itself, usually when someone wants to name the quality directly rather than just describe something as wonderful.
