I like both just about equally, but when I think of the names, I imagine them on very different people. I see Sofia/Sophia as a really sophisticated, confident, outgoing person, whereas I see Sofie/Sophie as more shy and quiet.

I prefer them both spelled with a 'ph'.

Sophia. She could always go by Sophie as a nickname, but it's much more sophisticated/grown-up sounding. I like Sofia, but not Sofie, so I'd go with Sophia, unless you live in a country where the -f- spelling is more common -- in the US, Canada, UK, etc. I'd probably go with Sophia, but in Spain, Mexico, etc. I'd go with Sofia.

I definately prefer Sophia. I like the spelling Sofia as well. *nods*

I saw somebody with it spelled Sofiya once. I'm not sure I like it. It looks like somebody randomly threw the 'y' in there. But if you like it - there's another spelling option. *nods*


So..yeah. Sophia or Sofia. Whichever would be best for you, and where you live and whatnot.

I prefer Sophie. I don't like Sophia very much.

I don't like any of them, but I dislike Sophie the least.

I like Sophia, nn Sophie. But Sofie/Sophie is okay on its own, and I view the f/ph as personal preference.

Sophia and Sophie!

Sophia & Sophie.

Sofie looks ridiculous- Sophia is Greek and means wisdom hence the 'soph' so I prefer that to the spanish version.

It's also my name.. :-D

I prefer Sophia and Sophie. Sofia doesn't look bad, but Sofie looks a bit off to me. I waver back and forth between Sophia and Sophie, though. Right now I'm lenaing toward Sophie.

I quite like Sofia but for some reason I really dislike Sophia quite strongly. I also quite like Sophie but don't like Sofie :-/

Sofia if you are Italian, Spanish etc or are naming in honour of someone with that spelling.
My cousin-in-law/good friend is going to name her first daughter (she's not pregnant) Sofia after her grandmother.

If we're choosing which we like best, I like Sophie. But I wouldn't use it because of the afore mentioned cousin.

Sophia and Sophie, though I do like Sofia. Sofie looks weird to me, though.

Sophia, then Sophie. I love Sophia as a name, but I don't like the "Sofia" version.
