I have a Sofia and the amount of people who see it written down and think it's pronounced Sofire is actually unbelievable.It is the best name though I don't like the others.

I have an Aoife she will be 10 next month.

Yes you often have to spell her name and explain how to pronounce it but EVERYTIME I do the person says " oh thats so pretty" so 100% worth it.

We had both Niamh and Sophia on our short list so perhaps we like similar names.

My Aoife has older sisters called Phoebe and Eloisa btw (and utterly outing myself here)
