But they sound exactly the same--and seeing as the spelling Sofia is in the top 100, I simply can't think of it as a "foreign" name. :)Array

I suppose you are right in that sense, but it's kind of like my name. If you see it spelt Cristina, you would think it's foreign (or made up unfortunately) but Christina looks very English, get what I mean? :)

I'm afraid I fail...Cristina doesn't look foreign to me, either. It's common enough of a variation that it gets the "normal" stamp from me--and so does Sofia, heh.Array

Yes they are common enough but it doesn't mean they are English names. To my DH, Sofia is more of a Spanish (foreign) name and Sophie is English.Anyway, I don't think we will see eye to eye on this lol :)
