Luna in Arabic is لونا, letter by letter l · oo · n · aa. Luna has no Arabic form of its own, so Arabic spells its sound, here with four letters: lām, wāw, nūn and alif. Arabic Wikipedia uses لونا for all three Lunas we checked: the Roman goddess, a Harry Potter character and an actor.

How Arabic Wikipedia spells Luna
We looked up three Lunas on Arabic Wikipedia: the Roman goddess, the Harry Potter character Luna Lovegood and the actor Luna Wedler. All three titles write the name لونا, and the sound rules of our name tool give the same spelling.
| Person or work | Arabic Wikipedia title | First name as written |
|---|---|---|
| Luna (goddess) | لونا | لونا |
| Luna Lovegood | لونا لوفجود | لونا |
| Luna Wedler | لونا فيدلر | لونا |
Why لونا is spelled this way
Luna is spelled by its sound, and Arabic has no letter for some English sounds, so each choice below follows a rule. لونا starts with the letter ل, lām. One letter, و wāw, never joins the letter after it, so لونا always shows one small gap.
- Luna is four letters: lām, ل, wāw, و, for the long oo, nūn, ن, and alif, ا, for the final a.
- Arabic Wikipedia writes the Roman goddess, the Harry Potter character Luna Lovegood and the actor Luna Wedler all as لونا.
- Our name tool does not hold Luna in its table; its sound rules give the same لونا.
| Letter | Name | Sound | Joins the next letter? |
|---|---|---|---|
| ل | lām | l | Yes |
| و | wāw | oo | No, never |
| ن | nūn | n | Yes |
| ا | alif | aa | Last letter |
