Alright. My name is Oona. I like this spelling because Una, even though this name is pretty, sounds like Uno, and so it looks Italian and Hispanic-ish to me, but it still is a good name. Oonagh looks more Irish and/or more Celtic. I like this spelling too, but the gh is like a surprise you weren’t expecting but at the same time you were.My mom chose this name because of a patient she once had. Also she’s a little Irish, so the name makes sense.
I don't personally know anyone named Oona but it's a very nice name. Some good nicknames are Oon, Oono, Moon, and O. I guarantee the person you're using these nicknames on will be so thankful. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOna.
I once knew an Oona, years ago. We're American, but she had an uncommon Irish surname and her roots were very (East Coast) Irish, so her name didn't look odd on paper. And to be honest, Oona wasn't odd to say in real life, despite it being so unlike the usual names in this country. It slowly grew on me.Only this spelling, though. Una looks too much like Spanish "uno," and Oonagh just has too many letters.
