Comments for ASIA (2):

It is sort of a pretty name but, I personally wouldn't name my daughter that. It is funny, naming your child after a continent.

I have a sad friend that bears this name. She tells everybody that it's just her nickname. Some advice: think long & hard before naming your child after a continent.

How in the hell is Asia a dimunitive form of Joanna? There is no possible correlation between the two.

There is a correlation between Joanna and Asia. Asia is a shortened form of another diminutive: Joasia.
And in Polish this name has nothing in common with the continent, which is Azja.

I really think some things here need explanation. Firstly, no one in Poland would name their child Asia. It's always Joanna. "-sia" is typical ending for pet forms of girls' names in Poland. So there's Joasia and then Asia.
Also, the pronunciation isn't similar to the word "Asia" (meaning continent) in English. So I fail to see a problem here.

Why does this name have a popularity section of Asia(1)? It should be popularity of Joanna in Poland.
