I'm newly in love with Una, which has been slumbering on my list for years. I love its numerical meaning and its echo of Úna, which derives from the Old Irish for "lamb." What do you think of Una (pron. OO-na)?

Combos:

Una Marguerite
Una Rosemary
Una Cecile
Una Cecilia
Una Cecily
Una Caroline
Una Beatrice
Una Harriet
Una Lillian/Lilias
Una Leontine
Una Rosalind
Una Rosamond/Rosamund
Una Henrietta
Una Perpetua
Una Primrose
Una Felicity
Una Herais
Una Hypatia
Una Philomel
Una Margery
Una Celestine

I really love the sound of Una, though I prefer the Oona spelling. Una Beatrice and Una Rosemary are particularly lovely.

Oona - really? With the Una spelling? I've only ever heard Youna. Which I don't particularly like, but it's a whole lot better than Oona, to my ears anyway.

I love Una's offbeat elegance.

Una Rosamond is beautiful! Something about Rosamond adds the perfect counterbalance for Una.
