Latin, Irish, or Old NorseMeaning:
"one; lamb; happy"Description:
In an epic poem, the personification of truth, beauty, and unity; this ancient name is popular in several European countries but less common in the US. The Oona spelling is slightly more popular but Una sleeker.
- Urse
Description:
Urse is an extremely unusual feminine name that may have originated as a variant of Ursula, which comes from Latin meaning 'little female bear.' Alternatively, it could be related to the Germanic element 'urs' meaning 'bear' found in various European names. This concise, single-syllable name stands in contrast to most feminine names with its brevity and strong sound. Urse has remained exceedingly rare throughout recorded naming history in English-speaking countries. The name has a certain primal strength associated with its bear-related etymology, combined with an unexpected simplicity. Its rarity and distinctive character might appeal to parents seeking something truly uncommon with ancient European connections.
