Sophie?

What do you think of this name?

Although it was a top 5 name my dd was the only one in her year of 110 girls with the name. Jessica was another top 5 name and there was only one Jess too. My younger daughter has a really rare name, only 30 born in England with that name in her year of birth but she’s shortened it to a popular nickname & there are 3 of those.

Sophie is a nice name.

She's nice Sophie, not controversial, sweet.
Sophia is sophisticated and elegant. She is Sophie's big sister.

Beautiful sophisticated name x

Yawn.

Love it!

Much prefer it to Sophia which I don't like as it's risen as a trend whereas Sophie is more classic.

I might be tempted by something less popular though.

It's a bit 'weak' to my ears.

Absolutely love it. Classic, elegant and I always think of the little Sophie who saves the world in the BFG.

It’s my DD’s name. Was always my favourite girl’s name since childhood. Yes it’s popular, but it’s classic and timeless, not flash-in-the-pan. I also love that it means ‘wisdom’.

I think it's lovely and it will age and travel well.

I want to love it so much but I was at school with six of them in my year (school year 86 so to the poster thinking it wasn’t a popular 80’s name - it was down south ) and of the six five were absolutely horrible. I actually still remember my 8th birthday when one made me cry by saying that we were poor and I had fleas in my house (because we didn’t have a horse and stable).

Sorry. I digress....
This is baby names, not therapy

Sophie is a lovely name, and not too popular - I work in a primary school, about 250 children, and there's only one Sophie

My sister is Sophie.

It’s been in the top ten names in the UK pretty much every year since 1982...

I often wonder why someone wants to name their child after a million others. In every year I was at school, both mine and my sisters names were shared with 5 or so others. Which is fine. Just sadly unimaginative.

Lovely. Classic, pretty, a change from Sophia. I would have used it but it doesn’t work with our surname.

It’s fine, don’t love it or hate it, it’s just fine.

Personally find it quite a boring simple name and it's quite popular if this I what you like though for for it! It could be made more pretty by maybe Sophiana or Sophia?

Speaking as a Sophie, I like this name and always have done. Never had an issue with it
