Three English women in America

Una is a feminine given name with various origins. As used by Edmund Spenser in The Faerie Queene, the name is derived from the Latin unus, meaning one. Una is a currently popular name for girls in Serbia, where the name also has associations with the Una River. The Filipino word "una" meaning "first" (e.g., in Tagalog and Cebuano) is also derived from this Latin root. Úna is an Irish language version that may be derived from the Irish word uan 'lamb'.
