Do you know what Effia means? I have a great aunt Effie, and I'm wondering if they're related now.

My own conclusion is that Effia might be a variant of Efimia or Eufemia; in that case, Effia and Effie are related names. But this isn't sure, Effia is a very rare name, so I haven't found any official information about its meaning/background.
