Monia, almost unique, is probably due to a transcription error by Monea, who is typically Calabrian, by Laureana di Borrello in particular in the Reggio area, and that could derive from a nickname originating from the medieval word monea (currency), contracted form in use between the second half of the 1300s and the 1600s, perhaps to indicate the family as particularly affluent, a second hypothesis, less probable, instead makes it derive from an alteration of the female name Monia.
