Both lovely but today I'd pick Estella!

For Sofia, I prefer the Sophia spelling.

Sofia is lovely, but it is UBER popular!

Estella is lovely too, and has the added bonus of being not so commonSmile

^^Stella McCartney springs to mind for me! ..not a lager fan I'm afraid!

I vote for Sofia Smile although here in Spain it is incredibly popular now.
Stella sounds to me a bit too American.

Estella, Estell or Stella for me.

Estella. I like Sophia but it's very popular.

Estella reminds me of Joey's agent in friends.

Great character, not sure about the name.

Sofia I like and don't see why popularity should deter you - some parents seem to think it's an originality competition!!

Sofia/Sophia both lovely.

Dislike Estella.

Estella wouldn't be my choice but its not my baby and you probably wouldn't like my DC names [hsmile].

Sofia is nice but along with Sophie and Sophia is very popular right now, though don't know if that bothers you.
