ArchivesRe: Onlia- what have I named my daughter?
in reply to a message by Bobbie
I have heard of the name Oneila which is an adaptation of an Irish second name and is quite popular here in Scotland. Could Onlia perhaps be an alteration of this name?

That would make sense. My grandfather says that the way she pronounced it (but did not spell it) was on-a-lee. Just wondering if an "Irish second name" is what we in America call a middle name? Thank you for helping us!

Sorry! Second name here means surname - as in the Irish surname O'Neil. Hope this helps!
