Sophie or Sophia?

[PorridgeBrain]

After months of disagreeing on names and with less than 2 weeks to go, DH and I have finally come down to Sophie or Sophia. I realize that one letter really shouldn't make that much difference but one of us really wants one and one the other! Please help us decide.

Also, middle names - we have Erin and Elisa/Eliza, which do you think goes best with which first name?

I think Sophia is a 'stronger' name than Sophie...Sophia Elise is lovely

Love both. Personally, I'd go for Sophia because there are fewer Sophias around (I know of lots of little Sophies - there were 3 in my DD1s year at school) and Sophia can be shortened to Sophie, but it doesn't seem to work so easily the other way round.

Sophie, im due in 10 weeks and am calling her Sophie

My sister is a Sophie and she is the only one I've actually come across- and I work in education so have known alot of kids! Maybe it's getting more popular now though? Alot of the 'pretty' names seem to be

Sophie.

Old thread.
