Re: Sophronia
in reply to a message by ari.
I have an ancestor named Sophronia! I think she was somewhere on my maternal grandmother's side. She apparently went by her middle name, which was something less remarkable (I want to say it was Jane, although I could be mistaken). It's a bit much for a name, but hey, that's my favorite kind. It also makes me think of the word "symphony". I honestly hadn't realized the possibility of Sophie or Sophia as nicknames until I read the other responses. That dampens my opinion of it a little, since I'm not fond of either.

Sophie is a possible nickname, but there are lots of alternatives including Ronnie, Nia, and my personal favorite, Ria.
