Re: Isobel, Catherine, and Sophia (questions)

What do you think of when you see this sibling set?
I really like it.
Do you think that these names fit well together? Would these names be good names for sisters in the 1700's/1800's?
I'm iffy on Isobel. Isabel (or Isabella), Catherine and Sophia would be better. (Though, this page http://www.galbithink.org/names/ncumb.txt has Isobell a few times and that's for Durham.Northumberland)
Would "Marie/Maria" work better than "Sophia" in this sibling set?
I think equally as good, though perhaps not so much Marie (and Maria would be mah-RYE-ah rather than Mah-REE-ah then). Isobel, Catherine and Mary would also be nice (or Isabel, Catherine and Mary/Isabella, Catherine and Mary).
