Help[Opinions] Re: Sonya
in reply to a message by Ismene
Such a cute name, though I'm never sure which pronunciation to use (I'd probably go with SAWN-ya, if I had to assume). It's short and sweet, and best of all not as overused as Sophia. Plus the meaning is cool.
I actually get a more shy, bookish vibe from the name (maybe cause of the meaning). The name sounds gentle to me, and decidedly feminine. But being gentle and being strong aren't mutually exclusive qualities :)
Not sure it needs shortening as it's only 2 syllables, but if the person is "sunny" than the nickname definitely works!
I kind of like it paired with a short middle name, like Sonya Jane or Sonya Faith.
