Just lurking, but thought I'd reply to this one. Personally, I think the name is adorable. I actually know a Luna, though. She's one of my college students and absolutely hates the name and insists on being called by her middle name thats a bit more traditional. Everyone's different, though. Just thought I'd throw that in.

I have to agree with some of pp's - Luna means moon and is often associated with being "looney" - I can almost hear now someone deciding to call her Lunatic - sorry - I think using this name for a child would be downright cruel
I love it. I don't think I would have the guts to use it because it is pretty unusual, but I certainly love hearing it and I'm sure even those who dislike the name would have to appreciate its unique, yet not made up, spunky style.

First I think of "Bear in the Big Blue House" - a kid's show. The moon is named Luna (obviously). I also know someone whose dog is named Luna, so personally I couldn't name my child that.
I don't really dislike the name for a child, but she will inevitably hear "Luna the Lunatic" type stuff, but most names lend themselves to a teasing nickname in some way.
So I guess I'm on the fence about it.
