loona is in Origin.
Loona is a modern, stylized form of Luna, from Latin luna, “moon,” the name of the Roman moon goddess. The double‑o spelling gives the name a soft, luminous look while keeping the same meaning and LOO-nah pronunciation in many languages. It evokes imagery of night skies, tides, intuition, and cyclical renewal.
As a given name, Loona shows little attested use before the 21st century and has risen alongside the international boom of Luna. Its visibility has been nudged by pop culture - most notably the K‑pop group LOONA and the stage name of a German‑Dutch singer - while remaining a distinct registry entry in some countries. Close variants and cognates include Luna (standard form), Louna (French), Loena (Dutch/Flemish), and the rarer Luuna. Related moon names are Selene/Selena and Aylin. Nicknames and short forms include Lulu and Loo.
