Ginny- virginia

I am new here (my second post) so excuse me if this has been covered before ( I did check the faq etc, of course). I am wondering if 
there is any signifigance to Ginny's name, which I am asuming is short for Virginia ( and given that there is a lot of name 
signifigance in the whole HP world). Is she the beautiful young virgin destined for the archetypal hero (that would be for the Harry/
Ginny Shippers)? Or is she some virgin sacrifice as she almost was in CoS ( or maybe that was just foreshadowing to something  
much worse)?

Any thoughts?
