HelpRe: Christina, Sophia, Juliana (m)
in reply to a message by Starfish and Coffee
Not Christina. I'm not remotely Christian and it would seem inappropriate. But, Christiana is a family name twice over, so if I had to use a Chris- name, that would be the one; mn only.
And not Juliana either. I knew one who went by Julie, which is shorter and neater and tidier - Juliana is right over the top! - but the only Juli- name I enjoy is Juliet, and then only as a mn.
Which leaves Sophia. I pronounce it soFEYEa, not soFEEa. And my friend's daughter, who is a red-head, goes by Phia, which is great because it sounds like Fire! I'd use it too - we live in different towns.
Sophia Juliet or Sophia Christiana would both work.
More likely:
Sophia Gillian
Sophia Margaret
Sophia Clare
Sophia Cecily
