Sophie's the perfect name, IMO. Simple, international, elegant, suits any age, brilliant meaning. Its only drawback is its understandable popularity.

Meredith's lovely but I prefer Sophie.

Meredith! I find Sophie really overused. Although it’s not a horrible name, it just isn’t very interesting as it’s been popular for years!

AndItStillSaidFourOfTwo · 04/03/2019 13:51

How about Meriel?

Wanderlustnearorfar · 04/03/2019 13:52

Meredith is lovely

SweetButaPsycho · 04/03/2019 14:03

Meredith. It's a great name.

Sophie by miles

TrendyNorthLondonTeen · 04/03/2019 15:54

Definitely Meredith, but I absolutely detest the name Sophie.

reindeermania · 04/03/2019 16:25

I think Sophie is nicer- classic and beautiful. I don't think you can have a Lottie and a merry tbh.

Usuallytootiredbuthappyanyway · 04/03/2019 16:26

I like Meredith but then again I am a big Grey’s Anatomy fan!

KellyMarieTunstall2 · 04/03/2019 16:29

Meredith is a fabulous name. It was on my list for DD. I like Merry too for a nn.

barkinatthemoon · 04/03/2019 16:30

I think I prefer Sophie. Meredith sounds a little harsh in my mind, but I don't dislike it.

Sophie it’s timeless and classic I have a dd called Sophie and she’s the only one in her class.

Meredith!

DramaAlpaca · 04/03/2019 22:03

Sophie. I don't like Meredith.

RinkityTink · 07/03/2019 04:10

I think Sophie is elegant and classic with a lovely meaning. A perfect match with Charlotte. .
