Husband loves it. I like it but not 100%. What are your thoughts?

I love it. I think it's a very pretty name.

milkysmum · 22/07/2020 21:12

Love it, but then my daughters name is Sophia so I'm going too I guess. I call her Phi for short generally, she doesn't like "soph" which she gets quite a lot.

I like it and it's on our list for our 2nd due in September but my only concern is that it doesn't have an obvious nickname other than Soph.

I've got a name that is only 3 letters and people make my name longer in nicknames so I'm trying to name my children with names which can be shortened affectionately

CoffeeBeansGalore · 22/07/2020 21:15

Classic, pretty, easy to spell. Can't go wrong 😊

yousmileyouwave · 22/07/2020 21:16

The nickname Soph is what's putting me off slightly too. It is such a pretty name and goes so well with our one syllable surname. Phi is a cute nickname!

Love it.

Helbelle17 · 22/07/2020 21:17

We have a Sophia, she's 3. She calls herself 'Phia' and that's stuck.
It's a beautiful name.

milkysmum · 22/07/2020 21:26

Yes Phi or Phia as nn. Sometimes PhiPhi but that she finds quite irritating to be honest 😂

LilacSloth · 22/07/2020 21:34

Really pretty.

CurtainWitcher · 22/07/2020 21:36

A bit twee and boring.

Whatsyourflava · 22/07/2020 22:30

Love it.
I know 2 people called Maria and I've never heard their name get shortened so I don't think Sophia will hopefully

missingmum · 22/07/2020 22:38

It's a bit dull if I'm honest, I also hate the nn soph.

gower4 · 22/07/2020 22:48

Sophie is more timeless.

MyNameHasBeenTaken · 22/07/2020 22:59

I know a little Sophia.
She is the cutest little kid.
Her brother calls her phia.

Coffeeandcake1 · 22/07/2020 22:59

IMO its overused and the nickname Soph is not particularly nice either

DramaAlpaca · 22/07/2020 23:00

I love it.

PepperMooMoo · 22/07/2020 23:01

DD's best friend is Sophia, we call her PhiPhi... gorgeous name!

DariaMorgendorffer · 22/07/2020 23:04

Love it

Shayisgreat · 22/07/2020 23:07

I like it. Very pretty.

winepls · 22/07/2020 23:07

Stunning ❤️

123Dancewithme · 22/07/2020 23:19

Beautiful name

micc · 22/07/2020 23:59

Lovely name, so pretty.
I would want to say Soph though ngl. I am one of those annoying people parents hate hahaha I cant not shorten someone's name. I know a few Sophie's at work and I call them all Soph! if someone did say please call me by my full name I would but it's hard not to shorten it.

MrsGilly1 · 23/07/2020 07:18

Sophia is a beautiful name X I prefer the nickname Fifi or Fia than Soph X

Enterthedragons · 23/07/2020 07:18

So boring

Tinamou · 23/07/2020 07:19

Beautiful
