Yeah, the long o to me would be like sew or sewn, or like own or crone or whatever. That's actually the only way I've ever heard Sonia pronounced, so it's sort of weird to me that most people seem to pronounce it sawn-ya or sahn-ya or what-have-you here.

I think with the letter 'c' it depends on what vowel sound follows it as to whether it's pronounced hard or soft? But English is totally weird that way - and different accents of English are so weird too, it always throws me off when I find out that some people pronounce certain words with completely different vowel sounds than what I'd expect.
