My name is Sonuahua pronounced the same as Sonya or Sonia, but with a native American spelling, not sure which tribe... maybe just the stressed out imagination of my mom after a couple days of intense labor... I love my name and have had a lot of fun with it, only rarely has anyone guessed close to the pronunciation, substitute teachers are the best source of entertainment... I don't care if people mispronounce my name.. or misspell it. I never take it personally, it is part of the fun of being unique. Apparently means wisdom in Greek form (Sofia) or Golden in Hindu (Sonia) I would love to find out the native American meaning.
In 2018, 43 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Sonya who is registered female with the Social Security Administration. It is the 709th most common female first name for living U.S. citizens.
