Sophie or Issie?

[Teakind]

Do you prefer Sophie or Issie (nickname for Isabelle)? My DH prefers Issie but I think I’m leaning towards Sophie.

We don’t know what we are having but we think we have a boys name so that’s something.

Thanks in advance

Issie/Izzie definitely more than Sophie.

Sophie is a proper name. wisdom.
issy sounds like a fizzy drink

Prefer Sophie to Issie.

Sophie would be my choice of the two. Isabel is beautiful and the Issie/Izzy nn is cute, but Isabelle/Isabel/Isobel will always have spelling issues which could be annoying.

Sophie, or even better, Sophia.

I don't think of Issie being a name for Isobel because no-one says Iss-a-bel, they say Izz-a-bel.

Sophie. I don't like Issie or Izzy.or the Isabelle spelling.

I know a baby girl born recently called Issa Sophia, which I think is beautiful.

Issa is a boy's name.

Sophie

My name is Issie and I spell it that way too. My full name is Isobel.
Sophie is nice too, she will be called Soph though how do you feel about that nn?

I think Sophie looks and sounds much nicer than Issie

Neither to my taste but Sophie is definitely less popular.

Sophie

And I also prefer Sophie to Sophia fwiw.

Really don't like issie. I have a beautiful 11 year old Isabel who at the moment prefers being called Izzy. Woe and betide anyone who dares spell it issy, she goes mad! Sophie is OK, but doesn't do much for me

Issie sets my teeth on edge - it doesn't make sense with English spelling and pronunciation conventions. I always want to pronounce it with an S.

Don't even get me started on Isie Suttie - is that Izzy too?

Are you saying it with a z sound?

Issie to me rhymes with sissy

Both Sophie and Isabel are lovely (prefer the simpler spelling) - it’s normally Izzie rather than Issie though?

I knew an Issy short for Felicity at school.

Sophie

I assumed Issie was pronounced to rhyme with "sissy". If it's pronounced the same as Izzy, it doesn't make sense by standard English spelling norms.

Sophie = wisdom

Sophie. Issie isn’t a name.

Sophie is lovely, Issie just sounds like a hissing noise.
