I just read up on our font naming guidelines in the manual:
"The name of a package containing only one font family starts with font-; it is followed by the foundry name and a dash - if the foundry is known, and the font family name, in which spaces are replaced by dashes (and as usual, all upper case letters are transformed to lower case). For example, the Gentium font family by SIL is packaged under the name font-sil-gentium.

For a package containing several font families, the name of the collection is used in the place of the font family name. For instance, the Liberation fonts consist of three families, Liberation Sans, Liberation Serif and Liberation Mono. (...) we prefer to package them together as font-liberation"

Given that, I wonder if the name should not simply be "font-un". There is no
foundry, and "un" seems to be the collection name, given that all individual
fonts are named "UnSomething". A bit unusual as a name, but why not?
