Girl
Tonya
The name Tonya carries the meaning "Slavic variant of Antonia", with roots in Slavic. It was at its most popular in the 1970s and is rarely chosen now. As things stand now, it is a solidly familiar choice. It has appeared in U.S. birth records in nearly every decade since 1900, a genuinely long run.
