Well my dear friend, the word Unicorn comes from the latin root word unicornus, which is divided in two words: uni, meaning "one", and corn, meaning "horn". Together that's "one horn".
The word unicorn comes from the Latin word "uni", meaning one, and "corna", meaning horn - the word "unicorn" means "one horn". Not to be confused with alicorn, which is often mistaken to be a winged unicorn. Alicorn is in fact the term for the substance a unicorn's horn is made out of.
