Sona -Vs- Character

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Oooh... A journal. I wonder what it says?!
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- Okay, So this is inspired by a journal entry from someone I'm watching and I really just started thinking about it.
There are people (err furries) on here that say I have MANY sonas... BUT they each have a different personality. Which leaves me to wonder if the huuman counterpart suffers from multi-personality. Hear me out before you flip and rage yell at me.
When I think of fursona, I think you the huuman but in a furry body (or scaley body if that's your thing). That's it. Pretty simple.
But when people say they have MANY sonas and they all act different... well that leaves me to wonder... why not just say.. characters?
I have one sona.. but many many characters. But I would never introduce them as my sona.. because they aren't me.. they have their own personality.
So, what do you all think of this?

I agree with you on the idea that "multiple characters" doesn't necessarily mean "multiple 'sonas", though. A lot of the confusion there could just be a misunderstanding of terms; "fursona" could indeed merely refer to "a character which belongs to me", or it could simply represent a part of their personality, or, as you said, it could refer to someone with multiple personalities, each having a distinct character in their "headcanon", as it were.
