Girls names for a sister called sophia

[mumtoacub]

Hey baby number 2 due in december and although we have decided on a boys name we are struggling with a girls name. We have a 1.9 year old girl called sophia and would like suggestions that sound good with sophia. Not making any suggestions as to what I like would just like to hear what you all think. Thanks.

Helena
Ophelia
Amelia/ Amelie/ Emilia
Athena
Olivia

Sofia is the name of the Queen of Spain. You could pair with another royal name:

Sophia and Adelaide
Sophia and Beatrix / Beatrice
Sophia and Catherine
Sophia and Charlotte
Sophia and Elizabeth
Sophia and Marie / Mary
Sophia and Isabella
Sophia and Philippa
Sophia and Victoria

Sophia means wisdom, so you could use names whose meaning match in some way:

Sophia and Athene (goddess of wisdom)
Sophia and Grace
Sophia and Laura / Laurel / Lauren (victory)
Sophia and Lucy (light)
Sophia and Vivienne (lively)

Or you could go for another strong European name:

Sophia and Anastasia
Sophia and Francesca
Sophia and Leonora
Sophia and Magdalena
Sophia and Nina
Sophia and Olivia

Terrific list Scatterplot! To highjack completely, I have some of these on my shortlist for DD2 (due October), including the OP's Sophia, so it's great to see others of similar grouping. Sigh, DH and I chose DD1's name in about 5 minutes, it was just the perfect and obvious choice and we still love it completely. DD2's name is proving much harder...

Honestly, any name you and your DP both like will go with Sophia. Forget your DD1's name, and chose whichever name you both like most.

Chances are, it will be of a similar type to Sophia (most people have a name-type), but if it's not, nobody is going to care, and in a few days the two names will be linked in peoples minds, anyway.
