Re: Sophie or Sophia
in reply to a message by Lily8
I like Sophia better but would use Sophie as a nickname. Sophia just seems more wholesome. I've always planned on naming my daughter Sophia, nicknamed Sophie, in honour of Sophie Scholl, my hero, but I've decided otherwise recently. It's much too popular for my tastes.
I know a few older Sophias. They're all between 14 and 20. Then I know heaps of younger Sophias/Sophies. I know three little girls called Sophia Marie alone. It's so overused.
I've only ever heard Sophia pronouned so-FEE-ah, but sometimes I hear SO-fee for Sophie instead of so-FEE. I like all spellings with PH best.
Alexandria Sophia ends in too many -ia sounds. Alexandria Sophie or Alexandra Sophia would be much better.
