Comments for the name Unity

A wonderful, beautiful name.

Name of one of the famous Mitford sisters of Great Britain. Unity Valkyrie Mitford was an avid, rabid supporter of Hitler and his régime. She inspired the character of Bellatrix Lestrange in J. K. Rowling's 'Harry Potter' series.

Seems to have been used a bit in Ireland/Scotland as an anglicized and elaborate form of Una.

Love it, just not the Unity Mitford reference.

I usually don't like names that are also dictionary words, and this is one of them.

It's a pretty word and a beautiful concept, but it sounds a bit like either a hippie name or some wacky religious cult name. Besides, I can't get over the fact that this was the name of that Nazi Unity Mitford.

In the "Sandman" series by Neil Gaiman, Unity Kincaid is a minor, though pivotal character.

It sounds corny as a name, and the fact that this was the name of Nazi Unity Mitford makes it just mean to name your child this.

In Mary Pickford's 1918 film "Stella Maris", she played a dual role; the title character, a typical "pretty Pickford" role, and Unity Blake, a bitter, disfigured housemaid. Her performance is stunning - if you didn't know it beforehand, you'd never believe both characters are played by the same woman. Had the Oscars existed then, she would surely have won.
