Uva is an unincorporated community in Marion County, Missouri, United States.[1]

An early variant name was "Mount Zion Community", after a nearby church of that name.[2] A post office called Uva was established in 1898, and remained in operation until 1901.[3] It is unknown why the name "Uva" was applied to this community.[2]
