Gunno is Norse in Origin.

Gunno is a rare Swedish masculine given name rooted in Old Norse gunnr, "battle," ultimately from Proto-Germanic gunth-. It appears in medieval Scandinavian charters in Latinized spellings Gunno or Guno and remained in limited use through the early modern period; the poet and official Gunno Dahlstierna (1661–1709) is a noted bearer. The -o ending reflects clerical Latin and also functions as a short, familiar form of names beginning with the Gunn-/Gund- element, such as Gunnar.

Its core sense is "battle; warrior." Close variants include Gunne, Guno, and the nickname Gunni. Related or compound forms are Gunnar, Gunvald, and the feminine Gunhild, with Swedish derivatives Gunnel and Gunilla. Cognates across the wider Germanic world include German Gunther (Günther), while Iberian Gonzalo/Gonçalo descends from the same Gund- root via medieval Latin Gundisalvus. Modern usage is uncommon, giving Gunno a distinctive, archaic Nordic character.
