Soon-ja, also spelled Sun-ja, is a Korean female given name. According to South Korean government data it was the seventh-most popular name for baby girls in 1940.[1] The same characters correspond to a number of Japanese female given names, including the on'yomi reading Junko and the kun'yomi readings Ayako, Masako, Michiko, Nobuko, and Yoshiko.[2] It is one of a number of Japanese-style names ending in "ja", like Young-ja and Jeong-ja, that were popular when Korea was under Japanese rule, but declined in popularity afterwards.[3] By 1950 there were no names ending in "ja" in the top ten.[4]
People with this name include:
- Soon Ja Du (born 1940), South Korean-born American convenience store owner
- Jeong Sun-ja (born 1947), South Korean diver
- Kim Sun-ja (athlete) (born 1966), South Korean sprinter

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
