in reply to a message by Ylva
Lonja (pronouned the same as Lonya) is said to be a short form of Apollonia, so it's likely Lonya is also a form of Apollonia

Yes, this seems likely, but the Lonya I read about is a man. Apollonius? But this is not Russian, I think.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams."
