Cynthia or Cynthie for a person and Synthiafor the partly synthetic bacterial species (Mycoplasma laboratorium) are French equivalents of the English name "Cynthia." The respective pronunciations of the feminine proper noun -- which originates from an alternative name for the Greek goddess Artemis in the first case and from a scientific Latin nickname in the second -- will be "seen-tya" and "seen-tee" for the person and "seen-tya" for the bacteria in French.
