We just found out the gender of our first child at a growth scan at 39 weeks. We're delighted to be having a girl! Over the last few months, we had ironed out our favourite first names for each gender and our girl name is Sophia. We like the meaning (wisdom) and that it's classic and easy for people to know how to pronounce on sight. But now I'm having second thoughts as it's so very popular. Should we consider a different first name???
The other thing we've been thinking about is what middle names to use, if we stick with Sophia. We plan to have 2 middle names as that's what DH's family do. Both of my grandmothers were named Margaret, so we definitely want that as 1 of the middle names, even if we change our first name. What do people think for the other middle name and the ordering?
If we stick with Sophia, here are some of our favourite combos so far:
Sophia Margaret Elizabeth
Sophia Margaret Gabriella
Sophia Margaret Hope
Sophia Margaret Olivia
Sophia Helen Margaret (Helen is a family name on DH's side)
Any input would be helpful. Thank you
