why cant i decide on a name and stick with it?

am now considering Sophie.

thoughts?

can it rhyme with anything rude for that oh so lovely 'teasing people at school about their name' stage that kids go through.

sophia is beautiful name
i like sophie too very very popular here

Yes, beautiful name but be warned, extremely popular especially with all the variations there are - Sophie, Sophia, Sofia, Sofie etc! One of the names we were considering if DS has been a girl but have met quite a few baby girls with that name now...

I think it's a great name - classy and would suit a girl and a woman.

MrsWobble · 09/09/2008 16:48

I like it. I nearly chose it for dd1 but in the end didn't because it was so popular. Within weeks of her birth I met three other babies with the name we had chosen so I ignored the popularity lists for dd2 and dd3 and chose names we liked. If you like it, you should use it. What do your other dds think?

Sophie is lovely.

It seems to be one of those names that features at both ends of the social scale so there would be less potential for being judged on name alone iyswim.
