It's quite timeless, so will never become dated like Chardonnay or Jade might. What a lovely tribute to her heritage.

Its a lovely name.
I used to have a cat called Sophie and the nicest person I've ever met was called Sophie.

I love the name Sophie. Every Sophie I have ever met has been kind

My name is Sophie, and as a Sophie I can tell you that I have always loved my name and have been complimented on it throughout my life. I say go for it! 😊
