Ginny's name could also be Regina, Latin for "queen" and used by many English queens in their signatures. If anyone remebers the BBC series "Elizabeth R" (with Glenda Jackson playing the title role), the "R" stands for Regina; according to a biography I recently read about Victoria, she also signed "Victoria Rwgina".
