Osana 4
Gender Feminine
Pronounced Pron. os-ah-nah(Old English)  [key·IPA]

Meaning & History

Derived from the Old English elements os "god" and āna "sole, alone". This name was borne by Saint Osana, a Northumbrian princess whose local following as a saint developed informally after her death, though she was never officially canonised. It is believed she may have been the sister of King Osred I of Northumbria, which would make her the daughter of King Aldfrith of Northumbria.
