It appears to be a feminine adjectival suffix, which is/was apparently also used as a patronymic suffix:

Another such suffix is -ine, of which the masculine equivalent is -inos (cognate to Latin -ina and -inus). So no, -one is not the only Greek suffix of this type.
Forchta in biuonga quamon ouer mi, in bethecoda mi thuisternussi.
In ic quad: "uuie sal geuan mi fetheron also duuon, in ic fliugon sal in raston sal?"
