Emuna Origin and Meaning

The name Emuna is a girl's name meaning "faith".

Sweet, soft and devotional, this Hebrew name can also be spelled as Emunah. In Jewish tradition, Emunah denotes the principles of faith, and the word amen derives from it. Literally translating to faith or trust in God, Emunah is better described as an innate and fairly held belief and trust in the truth of God. It may be enhanced by study and learning, but exists without this.

Despite its appealing sounds, Emuna is rarely used, perhaps because of its importance as a principle and philosophy. Journalist Emuna Elon however, is a notable bearer.
