A likable sibset although Una is a little overbearing for me. I love the name Julian for a boy (I wouldn't use it on a girl). John Lennon's son is named this.

Not a big Una fan (though I slightly prefer the spellings Oona or Oonagh), but I adore Julian and Rose, but only the latter as a fn. It's already bored me to death as a mn.

Hawthorne!I recognize those names.I loved Hawthorne as a guilty pleasure (for the author, of course) MN and thought I was brilliant for having Julian Hawthorne as my FN/MN combo until I was reading his bio one day and saw that this was his son's name. Nixed that combo!I like all three names. :)

I love Oonagh, so Una gets an easy thumbs up. Julian and Rose are ever lovely and sophisticated. The only Una born to a famous person that I know is Una (Oona?) O'Neill, Eugene's daughter. She married Charlie Chaplin (Geraldine Chaplin is their daughter). Whether or Oona / Una she had a brother and sister named Julian and Rose I have no idea.

It's a very lovely sibset, IMO. Rose may seem a little common in comparison to the others, but I think each name is pretty much flawless in its own right.I cheated and googled it... those were the children of Nathaniel Hawthorne, right?

Yes.

I think Una sticks out a bit, and Oona looks much nicer. I LOVE Julian and Rose, though.As for the person, I haven't a clue.

I cheated, but I think Mr. Hawthorne had nice tastes in names. I'm not personally fond of Una, but Julian and Rose are both quite handsome. I feel a bit shamed I didn't know whose kids they were, considering I went to his house when I was in Boston! Considering that it was four years ago, though, I think I can be excused. ;)Array

Una, Julian, and Rose sound great together. Una has been on my mind lately (I've been reading the Faerie Queene for a class). I admit that I did not know whose children Una, Julian, and Rose were. I looked them up though. They were Nathaniel Hawthorne's children.

Lovely names, dont know who the famous father is but I have heard this sibset before somewhere, my impression is that their father isnt a modern famous person but no name comes to mind.

I love them.I'd think they were from the '20s, but I don't know the famous parent.

I love Julian and Rose, Una is a little out there for me. It doesn't 'go with' the other names at all...
