        Actually looking it up I think the Un was short for University the A for airline so it was Un(verisity)A(irline)bomber. The name apparently showed up after the FBI connected a bomb he sent in the mail on a plane with the two previous bombs he had sent to Northwestern University.

          You are correct. Although I always read it as University and Airline bomber but that’s just me

        When you get English advice from “MeThisGuy”

        I suppose it checks out.

        That is spelled unilateral, and means one (uni) sided (lateral).
