Is the character of Sonny Corleone based on a real person?

The Godfather (1972) was adapted from the novel by Mario Puzo. Puzo modeled the character of Don Vito Corleone on New York mob bosses Joe Profaci and Vito Genovese. Many of the events of his novel are based on actual incidents that occurred in the lives of Profaci, Genovese and their families. Puzo based Don Vito's personality on his own mother's. However, Don Vito Corleone's son, Michael, is purely fictional.

For example, Don Vito Corleone can be seen as a representation of a powerful mafia boss, while Michael Corleone represents the transformation from a reluctant outsider to a ruthless leader. Sonny represents a hotheaded enforcer, and Tom Hagen embodies the pragmatic consigliere role.
