Meaning of the baby name AUNA.

  

AUNA.  Irish name, probably derived from Erse aine (pronounced ≈ awna), meaning "harmony, melody, music."

    AUNA.  A correspondent of N. Q. says this female name is thought to be the same as Aine (pronounced nearly awna), still given, or given till very recently, by Irish-speaking people to female children in the south and west of Ireland, and which he thinks is connected with the old Irish moon-goddess, commonly Anglicised to Anna or Anne.  Another correspondent of same journal says the name Auna as a Christian name is found printed upon a label in a volume of music of the beginning of the present century (19th).  This is curious, because the Erse word aine signifies "music, melody, harmony." (Prænomina, Charnock, 1882)
