Help[Opinions] Sofia, Anastasia or Lily? (more)
Can you rank them? You can also comment on them if you haven't before, I would love to read your comments :)
Do you think Sofia is a spelling that would always have to be corrected? Do you like it?
Is Sofia too common? I know it is very popular but it is starting to really grow on me. But it will pretty much be the next Jessica right?
Lily Sofia or Lily Anastasia?

I find Anastasia inconveniently long and complicated, so a lot would depend on what nn you thought you could persuade people to use. Ana? Stacy? Not great, IMO.
I don't like Lily one bit. It's better as a nn for Elizabeth, but it's still not good.
Sofia, to me, sounds like soFEEa; I'm very fond of Sophia but only when it sounds like soFIEa.

1. Lily
2. Sofia
3. Anastasia
Lily is one of my favourite names. It reminds me of a brave child who has to fight for her own life. I can also easily imagine an adult Lily who works to help people like a doctor or a teacher. Lily is a very cute nickname too.
I'm not a massive fan of the spelling Sofia, but I still quite like it. I would correct it to the spelling Sophia because it reminds me of a pretty girl or woman but Sofia reminds me of a road name (no idea why) "Sofia End" or "Sofia Lane". You know what I mean? And yes Sofia is getting very popular and that is a bad thing in my opinion as I would much much rather have Sophia stay up there. However, it will most certainly be the next Jessica.
Anastasia, well, I really really hate Anastasia. A horrible name. Too many vowels. Too many nicknames. Reminds me of a bossy princess who is incredibly annoying. I would never ever name my daughter this.
After looking at my comments, it is a little bit obvious which one I'd pick.
Lily Sofia, but I would prefer Lily Sophia or Sophia Lily. Not Sofia Lily though.
By the way, just wondering, why did you choose Lily as first name?

Thanks for your answer :) Lily has just been my favorite name ever since I can remember. I think I was 9 or 10 when I first starting liking it. I still remember sitting in my room a few years later, when I was 12 or 13, and deciding on the spelling I liked best :P I wrote all of them down and decided Lily is the nicest one. I also love lilies, my favorite flowers are peruvian lilies, they are gorgeous :) I have always constantly loved this name whereas other favorites have come and gone so I know it's the right one :) Oh and I think it is strong and feminine but also sweet sounding. I also always imagine a Lily to be a great person, maybe because I grew up with Harry Potter and Harry's mom Lily saved his life. But I liked it even before I read the books :)
Ohh and I could imagine using Anastasia and Sofia as first names too I am just leaning more towards Lily.

Sofia. I used to dislike all Sophie variants but they're growing on me, though it's true it's very popular. I don't get the love for Anastasia and Lily. Anastasia has a slightly silly vibe if you're not Russian and Lily is childish and prissy, the kind of name I can't imagine on anyone over 5.
As for the spelling of Sofia, it would depend where she was, it's the standard Italian spelling.

1. Sofia - best meaning, nice length, too popular
2. Anastasia - ok meaning, quite long, not as popular
3. Lily - good meaning, quite short/nicknameish, too common
I go back and forth on which spelling I prefer. There are worse problems in life than having to spell out your name.
I think Sofia/Sophia is already the next Jessica. There are Sophies everywhere! (at least in Australia)
Lily Anastasia. I like Anastasia Lily more though.
