History & Origin

Lunamaria is plainly a compound of two names run together. Luna is Latin for 'moon' and the name of the Roman moon goddess; Maria is the Latin form of the Hebrew Miriam, borne by the mother of Jesus and endlessly explained - 'beloved,' 'bitter,' 'wished-for child' among them - with no settled answer. Compounds of this kind are common in Spanish and Italian naming. The name is also carried by a character in the Gundam SEED anime series, which we note honestly (said 'loo-nuh-muh-REE-uh').

It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, ornate, and celestial.

Did you know? Lunamaria is a two-name compound rather than a single old word - Luna, the Latin moon, joined to Maria, one of the most widely borne names on earth.
