Origin and meaning of Luna

Luna comes straight from the Latin luna, 'moon,' the celestial body that in Roman mythology was also a goddess, the personification of the night's great light. The name evokes poetry, mystery and the soft glow of night. After centuries of sporadic use it has surged back in recent decades: today it is much loved in Italy, Spain, Germany and the English-speaking world, prized for reading clearly in every language. Short, luminous and universal, it unites nature, romance and freshness.
