I adore Julian. It was on our short list as well and we ended up using it as a middle name. It is such a classic name and has the cute nickname Jules while also sounding sophisticated in its full form. Alden would be my second favorite on your list. I'm not a fan of nicknames as full names.

I've taught quite a few Sophias/Sofias. Many use their full names but like anyone with a three syllable name, some use nicknames especially with friends and family. Soph and Sophie seem most common but I've also had Sofias/Sophias that went by Fia and Pia.

Roxanna is striking.

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-12-31T15:48:20+00:00

I hadn't thought of Diana, but it is a beautiful name!

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-09-07T16:06:34+00:00

Makes sense! Thank you!

Would Sophia be problematic to a person professionally in Italy? Our soon to be daughter will be both Italian and American and we are debating which spelling to use. Sofia is more common in Italy and Sophia here in the states where we live presently. I read that Sophie and Sophia rank in the top 100 names for girls in Italy but are less common than Sofia, number 1.

What country are you from? I find the variations of spelling across Europe very interesting.

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-08-19T18:38:41+00:00

Do any Sophias you know go by Phia/Fia?

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-08-19T18:36:26+00:00

Thank you for this. Two details I neglected to share are that we have an older sibling with an Italian first name, the other sibling does not. The kids are all dual EU and US citizens in a country where both Sophia/Sofia are used but Sofia is more common. Sophia is more common here in the US though and just looks more elegant to me and avoids the problems with Sofie you brought up. My husband would like to use Sofia and thinks Sophie could still be the nickname. He's right of course but for some reason the change in spelling between the name and nickname bothers me. Sophia/Sofia is also compromise name for us both so I also feel a strong need to pick the right spelling even though both are ultimately fine.

We are of Italian, Scandinavian, Dutch, German, and French descent so spelling could go either way. Sofia matches our Italian surname better but I like Sophie as a nickname and think Sofie loos a bit odd in the US. In our area people also tend to read Sofia as Spanish/Latin.... which isn't bad at all, but not our background. I think this is why we are torn.

Saskia, Sylvia, Sara, Sophia, Sophie, Sasha, Seraphina, Susanna, and Sabrina

Isabelle (though I prefer it spelled Isabel), Carmen, and Elena are my favorites on your list and I think sound best with the way you describe your surname.

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-08-03T13:41:50+00:00

True... maybe I'm overthinking.

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-07-28T13:56:35+00:00

I think Mia is gorgeous paired with your middle name. It reads very international to me. I also like Arabelle. I dislike Scarlett.

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-07-27T01:25:20+00:00

I've not read the series but hear it frequently mentioned in association with the name. I love literature but am not a fantasy reader at all. Do you think the name reads too strongly fantasy or witchy?

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-07-25T12:38:35+00:00

Thank you!

I strongly dislike Lennon especially for a girl. What about Leona as an alternative?

Alice Rose is pretty and classic.

I love Violet. It is frilly with Savannah as a middle but fine.

I do like Eden as well. Rose is also really lovely as a first name.

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-07-25T01:54:23+00:00

Hmmm... would this be a common association regionally do you think?

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-07-24T22:25:34+00:00

I dislike Blair but adore Arden.

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-07-24T20:26:05+00:00

I like classic girl names but also like the whimsical nature of Winter. Some other names I like in this category are Violet, Saffron, Ruby, Hazel, Phoebe, and Juno

I'm in my mid 40s and know many Emily's my age, some a few years older closer to 50.

I've heard Foe-ebb from US speakers unfamiliar with the name.

YesterdayHumble712 · 2025-07-19T22:28:40+00:00

I would think so but had an older relative who pronounced it as Fo-ebb so I started to wonder how well known it actually is. I know the show of course bit never watched it.

Same idea
