Euna
A girl's name with 2,136 recorded U.S. births.
Meaning & Origin
A female given name.
Euna is a girl's baby name of Scottish Gaelic origin, the Scottish Gaelic form of Una, possibly meaning "unity" or "one" from the Latin "unus," or from the Irish word for "lamb." Una appears in Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene (1590) as a figure of Truth.
Euna carries the philosophical simplicity of unity — a name for someone who brings things together rather than apart, whose presence resolves rather than complicates, who understands that the most important things in life are simple rather than multiple.
EtymologyShow more
Euna first shows up in U.S. Social Security records in 1885. Names present in the earliest SSA data (which begins in 1880) were typically carried by immigrants from Europe, handed down through families, or drawn from biblical and classical sources.
Without a confirmed origin classification, Euna may have arrived through family tradition, creative coinage, or cultural channels not yet documented in standard naming references.
