    Yes, Unaisa is the name of a Sahabiyah. She has narrated a Hadith which is reported in Sunan Nasai.

     

    أَخْبَرَنَا مَنْصُورٌ، عَنْ جبير بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَمَّتِهِ، أُنَيْسَةَ قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "إِذَا أَذَّنَ ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ فَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا وَإِذَا أَذَّنَ بِلاَلٌ فَلاَ تَأْكُلُوا وَلاَ تَشْرَبُوا‏.‏ (نسائى ص 105 ط ديوبند)

     

    It is written in Usud al-Ghabah:

     

    ‏انيسة بنت عروة بن مسعود بن سنان بن عامر بن أمية الأنصاري،من بني بياضة بايعت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قاله ابن حبيب (أسد الغابة)‏.

    It means: sociable, friendly, and the pronunciation is Unaisa ((اُنَيْسَه.
