[Opinions] Re: Tanya and Tonya
in reply to a message by Perrine
I definitely pronounce them differently. I prefer Tanya, I think, slightly more. They are both pretty brassy names, and I respect that about them. I still think of Tonya Harding whenever I see the name (either version), so it has a very "blue eyeliner and crimped hair" vibe going on for it, with a slight undercurrent of Imperial Russia. A very complex name!
