Possible link of Onabee as a surname

My husband's family has had a difficult time tracing their ancestry beyond a couple of generations on his father's side. There was apparently some mystery in his grandfather's past. His father's (as well as his) middle name is Onabee. I thought perhaps this might be a surname, passed on as a middle name. My husband's father's name was Luke Onabee Gross.
Anybody out there have any clues?
