DH is really keen on Sophia but I am very worried that it is just too popular and DD will be one of many.

of the generation below me
One sophia and one sophie

1 x 6yo Sophia
1 x 25yo Sophia
1 x 35yo Sophia

It isn't too popular and it's a nice name, I would use it. Even if you have a name on the top of the popularity lists (like Olivia or Grace), statistically only 1 in 50 babies will be using it (or something like that, I think I read) so even Olivias and Graces might expect to be the only one of that name in the class.

Oh yes, I also know 2 x Sophie who are 5yo and 3yo.

Jamdoughnutfiend · 28/03/2012 20:17

I have one, she is 8 months. Have come across 2 or 3 since naming her, think it is around top 40 mark. Her NN is Fifi as DD1 couldn't say Sophia

Grabaspoon · 28/03/2012 20:22

I know a 3 year old Sofia and a 2 year old Sophia.

BlastOff · 28/03/2012 20:24

Two, both 2 yo, and a 3 yo Sophie.

Pretty name though.
