My daughter just found out she is having a girl. She is struggling with names though. She really likes Sophia.. Needs a middle name to go with that. She is also open to any other suggestions.
She is due December 24th but doesn't want any "Christmas" names.
This is my first granddaughter... Not sure if my bank account is ready for this!!!
Thanks in advance!
Dena

Oooh, a new baby girl! How exciting. Sophia is a very pretty name. Does she like traditional names or does she want something a little more modern and unique?

She likes unique but at the same time she seems to like traditional. One requirement is that it be easy to pronounce as she is deaf and has a hard time pronouncing words. Her momma says no creative spellings!!! Lol

We were talking about baby girl names last night and decided it was time to bring back Karen, Linda, Barbara, and Susan. But, don't think Sophia goes with those.
Any family names she might like to use to remember or honor someone? Grandparents' names? Great Grandparents?
I do like: Sophia Marie Sophia Jane Sophia Rose Sophia Grace Sophia Claire Sophia Louise

How many syllables for the last name, and what consonant sound, if any, does the last name end with?

I like Sophia Grace, too-but you need to take into account the last name.

Sophia is very pretty, but also very popular. Is your daughter alright with the fact there are going to be several girls with the same name in her daughter's grade in school? Congratulations on your new grand daughter!! I have 2 and they are so much fun. I have learned more about princesses than I ever wanted to know.

I love Sophia Grace! I like the middle name having one syllable...it makes it much easier to get their attention when they're older!

Congratulations! I love the name Sophia - very pretty,
Sophia Rose Sophia Grace Sophia Marie Sophia Louisa Sophia Claire
Anne Sophia Annabelle Sophia Isabelle Sophia Madeleine Sophia Catherine Sophia Alexandra Sophia Victoria Sophia
I like a short middle name that starts with a consonant with Sophia as a first name or a longer classic first name with Sophia as a middle name

I think a middle name with only one syllable sounds better with a 3 syllable first name. Sophia Grace or Sophia Rose sounds lovely.
ETA: Or Sophia May / Sophia Mae

I vote for Sophia Marie - because my oldest daughter is named that! My second vote is for Grace - because my youngest daughter has Grace as a middle name (Eliza Grace)

I agree about a middle name with 1 syllable when the first has 3. Sophia Grace :thumbsup:

If she's not totally sold on Sophia (which is lovely), I say Stella. I LOVE this name, but with two boys haven't been able to use it.

How about Sophia Joy. I was born in March so it's not just a December name. And it's not that common. I have never had another Joy in my class. My niece named her first daughter Daisy Joy.

It's going to be a trendy, popular name among the child's peers. I've edited several books with heroines named Sophia lately. But obviously, that doesn't bother a lot of folks, so it's merely information and not a judgement. It's no skin off my nose what anyone names their child, really. I always liked the name Kelly myself. But I don't know that it goes with Sophia. Just think twice of going with Sophia Lauren. The poor child would be in for a lifetime of explaining why she was named after an old movie star.

Are there any family names that work with Sophia? I like middle names to make a connection of the past generation with the new generation. I think Sophia Dena sounds nice.

Thank you all for the suggestions. My niece used many of the "good" names already. She has Grace, Rose and Elizabeth. So those are out. The last name starts with a p and is 2 syllables.
She's not 100% sold on Sophia. She told me she doesn't want a common name but I don't think she realizes how popular Sophia is.
She is open to any other suggestions!
Thanks! Dena
