[Opinions] Re: Sophronia
I have a Sophronia in my family tree. She was born in Tennessee, USA, around 1850. In doing genealogy research, I've also come across the name on other people from the 1800s, sometimes with variant spellings (Saphrona, Saffrona, etc.). People back then really liked names from ancient history and the classics, although they didn't always know how to spell them.Anyway, I like the name. I think it's interesting and has a good sound to it, plus lots of nickname potential. It may be a bit "fussy", but not overly so.***
