I don’t think it sounds like
Sophia because Sapphira’s pronunciation is sa-FIE-ruh.
Safira [sa-FEE-ruh] on the other hand does sound like
Sophia.
I like both
Sapphira and
Safira, but prefer
Sapphire to both.
Sapphira doesn’t feel trendy to me. Modern...perhaps? But not really if I’m honest. It’s a pretty, old name that has a “glam” feel to it. It reminds me of
Estelle |
Stella in that way.
