I'm partial to Eugenia because it has family history for me. My great-great-grandparents named used it as a middle name for my great-grandma because the man who was going to be the best man (named Eugene) was killed in a car accident about a week or so before the wedding. It was passed on to my grandma who hated it and refused to pass it on to my aunt. I love it and secretly prefer the Greek pronunciation. My grandma was named Patricia Eugenia and my grandpa called her Patsy Jean. I actually like it without a nickname. I like Virginia, but not nearly as much.
