[Opinions] Re: Lily, Sofia or Anastasia? (more)
Sofia, probably, though Lily is a perfectly ok name. I actually know a woman named Anastasia, pronounced the North American way, I suppose you'd say. No nick-name either, she goes the whole 5 syllables! She's a nice person, so I like the name.

I know someone named Anastasia with no nickname too! Hers is four syllables though: a-nə-STAY-zhə. It always struck me that she didn't use a nn, but it's a beautiful name and doesn't really need one.

Now that you say it,i believe the young woman I know also pronounces her name as you write it, 4 syllables, rather than 5, as I wrote.
I've been saying it aloud to check!And I agree, it's a beautiful name.
