Too British for the Netherlands. In Dutch, I immediately think of "oen" and "oenig," since the pronunciation of Oona sounds like "Oena." -

So sweet and a bit stubborn, but I think Oona sounds cute. -
Ingrid started this #5
We would pronounce it with a long O. -

Actually, it’s Irish, apparently:

And there’s also a unisex name with the meaning: Lamb -

This website also says it's Irish, in this case not a unisex name but a girl's name:

And this website says Irish or Gaelic (=Celtic, so Irish or Scottish) or from Latin:

I find Oona sounds a lot like Oma when you pronounce it with that long "oo" haha -

In Belgium, you hear this name more often. It's one of those names that's starting to become popular. I know at least 3. -
