Probably bit unusual for UK, but what do you think of it?

Did you guess they are pronounced like this

Ozana - O-za-na

Miruna - Mee-ru-na (end is like Una)

Miruna, to my surprise is ranked 884 for uk in 2021! And there is no Ozana in uk

Love them both

Lcb123 · 11/11/2022 21:55

Both sound like pharmaceuticals or contraceptives to me…

Talkwhilstyouwalk · 11/11/2022 21:53

The first sound like Osama....not ideal

The second sounds like a type of birth control.

Just my opinion and first thoughts when I saw the names....

Miruna made me think of the Mirena coil.

Not a fan of either but prefer M.

Romanian names?

I used to teach a Miruna. Not the best name. Ozana not heard of, but don't like much.

Better names Alexia, Mirela, Mia, Sofia.

Both really really awful.
No one would pronounce it Meeruna, it looked like MIRE to me

And Ozana = Ozark? Orzo?

Nope to both

I like Ozana but Miruna, written down, made me think of mirena coils. I’d also have mispronounced it.

Roystonv · 11/11/2022 21:43

Both sound like a medical company trying to find a name for a coil, contraceptive or hormone.

I’ve always like Ozma.
She is the Queen of Oz (yes, from Wizard of Oz books).
