Certain fonts not working in Typography.js and Gatsby

It seems like some fonts work when I configure typography.js and others don't.

I can't figure out why, as both fonts below are listed on the Typography.js main page: https://kyleamathews.github.io/typography.js/

Code Used:

typography.js:

import Typography from "typography"

const typography = new Typography({
    baseFontSize: "24px",
    headerFontFamily: ["Lucida Grande"],
    bodyFontFamily: ["Oxygen Mono"],
});

export default typography

gatsby-config.js:

module.exports = {
  siteMetadata: {
     title: 'Chris Maltais',
  },
  plugins: [
    'gatsby-plugin-react-helmet',
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-plugin-typography`,
      options: {
        pathToConfigModule: `src/utils/typography.js`,
      },
    },
  ],
};

Starter template: gatsby-starter-default

Library versions:

typography: 0.16.17

gatsby-plugin-typography: 1.7.19

I've also commented out the import to ./index.css in src/layouts/index.js.

Result: The Lucida Grande font will work, however the Oxygen Mono will not. In fact, any font with "Mono" in the name does not.

Am I missing something? Do typography themes contain different fonts? Any help is appreciated.

You also need to specify the googleFonts array as shown in the "API" section of the doc. Oxygen Mono is a Google Font, so you'll need to add this there. Lucida Grande is probably already installed on your computer but you should ship it with your website of course.
