    Name to use with NN Sonnee?

    Hey Berries!
    I'm trying to come up with a first name that could have Sonnee (pronounced Sunny) as a NN. It is to honor my Grandmother, but her real name was actually unrelated to her NN. She made up Sonnee when she was a little girl because she hated Virginia so much! The only thing I've come up with is Sonia, which I love, but my husband isn't sold.. Any Ideas!? I'm also still busy trying to sell him on just using Sonnee as the first name.
    My one reservation about Sonnee is that everyone will think it's Sunny and obviously it will have the sun-shiny image, which oddly, it never really had for me, I guess because it was spelled so different. What do you think?
    My Middle names options are all also family related: Ann, Margaret, Frances, Elizabeth, Edna, Vivian/Vivianne/Viviana,
    I'd like to use a family name, but I don't think anything sounds good with Sonnee! Actually, I can't really think of a single middle name that works...! Maybe something really short? help!

    Susannah was my first thought to get to Sonnee. I also love your idea of Sonia!

    Sonora and Sonoma are two names that come to mind. I think Sonnee is very cute.
