Help[Opinions] Sophia or Sofia?
I'm in love with this name. I know, it's way too common so I would definitely want to keep it in the middle, but I'm not sure which spelling I prefer.
I'd like to use it for Sophia Loren, one of my favorite actresses, but even though Sophia was her stage name, her birth name was Sofia, so that doesn't make it easier :P
Sophia would definitely make things easier as this is how most people would spell it. But I prefer the clean look of Sofia. You know, with Sophia the P just sticks out of the name somehow and with the F it looks cleaner, if that makes sense :P
Sofia or Sophia?
Do you like Noah Sofia or Noah Sophia?

I prefer Sophia, but if you like the way Sofia looks better, go with Sofia. Both are perfectly fine.

I dither between Sophia and Sofia. At the moment I prefer Sofia. A friend just had a daughter - Sofia Celeste. Sofia you can have Fia as a nn which I like as a change from Sophie which is so overdone here.
I prefer Noah Sophia - it looks more symmetrical than Noah Sofia.
Noa Sofia looks ok though = but I understand you want to use Noah.

Sophia. I don't like fs- they look fluffy and lack some class. Sophia looks sleaker, more sophisticated and more classic to me (I know the Sofia spelling is just as old and 'classic' but it just doesn't give that impression- fs are far less serious). Sophia just looks more complete.
Noah Sophia is a little sing song to me.

I think my answer is self-explanatory, lol:-)
Generally, I dislike the 'ph' spelling for 'f' in almost all names (eg. Filip, Fineas...), it just doesn't seem intuitive to me.
I love Noa Sofia. Since you prefer the Noah spelling then definitely Noah Sofia, because two 'h' don't work for me.
ETA: My combos are: Sofia Magdalene, Sofia Josephine, Bethany Sofia and Piper Sofia.

Haha, that was on "Wer wird Millionär?", right? She was the girlfriend of one of the candidates if I remember correctly. I think she was from Brazil. I thought that was supercool back then. ;P

I prefer Sophia but I understand what you mean with Sofia looking 'cleaner'.
To be honest Noah Sophia/Sofia looks very wrong (the H makes it look so masculine and then to see Sophia next to it is just very confusing). I think Noa Sophia would be very nice.

Thanks, but the things is that I really really prefer Noah over Noa for a girl and I need a feminine middle name so that I can use it here in Germany ;)

I definitely prefer the Greek spelling of Sophia. It looks more aesthetically balanced to me. I do not think the f looks cleaner or better at all.
Sophia Caroline is a favorite of mine.
