What are your thoughts as to which is better?

They're both lovely names. Sophia is very popular at the moment, so if that's an issue I'd go with Phoebe. But they're both great.

Definitely Sophia, didn't realise people still called their kids Phoebe.

I so much prefer Sophie to Sophia, and that’s closer to Phoebe, how about that?

Sophia seems really common now

I love Phoebe, Sophia seems a bit too frilly to me, I prefer the simplicity of Sophie.

Sophia 100%. I do prefer it spelt Sofia, but either way is beautiful! I really dislike Phoebe, sorry.

I like both but I know quite a few people called Sophia so I would go Phoebe

Phoebe, although Sophia is lovely too.

Funnily enough, we have a Phoebe in my family who my MIL always calls Sophia. I think it's the ph thing that's confused her Grin
