Sophia is my favourite to be honest.
Just not a fan of Sonia, prefer it spelt Sonya but if I had to choose I’d go so Sophia

I like Sonia, it's not a name I hear often these days.
The Sonya spelling looks more Russian to me (not that that's a bad thing).
Otherwise prefer Sophie to Sophia.

I like Sophie.

Sophia. If ds3 was a girl he would have been Sophia (well Sofia or Zofia actually, but pretty much the same). It's such a beautiful name. Sophie is really nice also.

I love Sophie and Sophia. If I had to choose I'd say Sophia.
Can't abide Sonia/Sonya. No reason I just don't like the sound of it.
Saying that though it'd be very refreshing now

calmearth · 03/02/2021 10:31

Sophie or Sophia. Sophie is my preference.

Sonia/Sonya is quite ugly and dated.

Chilldonaldchill · 03/02/2021 11:43

I dislike Sonia/Sonya which seems very dated.
Sophie or Sophia are both nice.

YoniAndGuy · 03/02/2021 11:45

Sophie definitely. Sophia is just so much fussier. Also - seems MUCH more common these days. I know a few Sophias of primary age. No Sophies.

Sophie is really simple and classic.

Sonya/Sonia - no!!!! Just awful!

Devlesko · 03/02/2021 11:58

Sophia definitely

35andThriving · 03/02/2021 12:02

I like Sonia and Sophie best.

Ellieboolou33 · 03/02/2021 12:11

Sonia would be my choice, not keen on Sophie as a bit meh

Miltonj · 03/02/2021 12:13

Sophie all the way

Peachbubble · 03/02/2021 12:16

Sophie, always loved it. Second choice is Sophia. Don't like Sonia at all, sorry.

Enko · 03/02/2021 12:23

Sophia or Sonia (or Sonja)

MissDollyMix · 03/02/2021 12:24

I’m probably showing my ages but I can’t help thinking of Eastenders when I see Sonia! I love the name Sophia, it’s a beautiful, classic name.

Sophie

Definitely not Sonia or Sonya!

TryingNotToPanicOverCovid · 03/02/2021 14:29

Sophia will date her age as wasnt at all popular and then suddenly very popular, rather than a classic.

Sophie a classic but again popular. Muvh less faddy than sophia though.

Sonia is awful

Chambored · 03/02/2021 14:30

Sophia

ILoveShula · 03/02/2021 16:10

Sophie.

May2021Mummy · 03/02/2021 16:29

I'm not a fan of Sonia but Sophia is lovely

emmathedilemma · 03/02/2021 16:43

Sophie
Sophia is too frilly for me and Sonia is a bit '80's.

Rugbycomet · 03/02/2021 16:46

Sophia but I prefer the spelling of Sofia.....
