What is the meaning of the name Moona ?

Moona is English in Origin.

Moona is a modern Finnish feminine given name, a phonetic variant of Mona that marks a long vowel with double o. Through Mona it links to several roots: Irish Muadhnait (“noble, gentle”) and Arabic Muna/Munā (“wishes, desires,” the plural of munya). The form also aligns with Scandinavian usage in which Mona functions as a short form of Monica or Simona.

In Finland, Moona has appeared in civil registers since the late 20th century and remains rare outside the Nordic countries. Related forms include Mona, Muna, Mouna, and Monna, alongside diminutive uses of Mona for Monica, Simona, and Ramona in various languages. As a result, meanings associated with Moona range from “noble” to “wishes,” while modern usage sometimes carries a subtle lunar echo.
