I read it as pro-gyn-nova

  • Pro: as in professional/effective
  • Gyn: woman (from Proto-Indo-European *gwen), like in gynocology
  • Nova: new (in many romance languages)

It rolls off the tongue and encapsulates three important aspects. I'm sure there are other readings of it too.

I think it's more pro like the prefix meaning "for."

So it would roughly mean "for new woman"
