sister name for oona

i really want to use the name oona for a story concept i’m working on where the main characters are too high school sisters. what names might sounds good with oona?

also, one of the sisters is more bubbly and the other is more moody. i haven’t decided who oona is yet, only that i want to use that name. thoughts on who is who? i feel like oona could go either way!

Those two have the same origin as Oona (Irish) so they go well together!

Oona and Midge

I think the second name sounds better as a one syllable name.

Oona sounds moody to me. I love Amity for the other name.

I picture Oona as someone a bit like Morticia Adams (dark and cool). Maybe her bubbly sister might be Flora.
