User Comments about the name Tonya
Comment left Aug 16, 2007: "My name is Tonya. Most of the time, it is not pronounced wrong, but it is spelled wrong often. it is T O N Y A not T A N Y A. Tonya and Tanya are two different sounding names. I hate it when people spell my name Tanya, as in Tanya Tucker. No offense to people who is named Tanya, that's just not my name! I've learned that Tonya is not a very popular name. I've not met many people with the same name." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Feb 25, 2007: "Some people want to spell my name Tanya which should be pronounced tan(biege color) ya. Foreigners pronounce the o as a long o if they see it spelled and read it aloud." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Sep 27, 2006: "I named my daughter Tonya, because it was different. I do find it hard to find things with her name on it. Why is that? I didn't even think of Tonya Harding when I named her. She likes her name and that is all that matters." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Aug 19, 2006: "my name is tonya it is misspelled all the time only my russian friend says it correctly.. it is a unique name for me since i do not know many tonyas :)" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 12, 2006: "My name is Tonya. When I tell people my name they try to spell it "Tanya". When they see my name written down they say tell me that my name is pronounced "Tone-ya" I never understood that. So, if someone's name is "Ron", should that be pronounced "Rone"? I've never really liked my name. My aunt named me." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jun 20, 2005: "My name is Tonya. This name isn't popular any longer. I never liked it myself. People seem to pronounce it incorrectly all the time. I get 'Tone-ya, Ton-Ja, Tan-ya etc.' My name is pronounced Ton (ryhmes with won) ya. I can never find cups or key chains etc. with my name." (Report as inappropriate)

It's not found in youger people becuase of Tonya Harding and her antics. It's also hard to come up with a nickname. I usually go with 'T'." (Report as inappropriate)
