I think it's easy for many people to hear that -ee ending, so common in nicknames like Annie, Katie, and Maggie, and end up using names like Sophie, Sylvie, and Julie as nicks for their -ia ending counterparts. I actually prefer Sophie over Sophia, and I know that it's a full and complete French name, but it doesn't bother or surprise me to hear it used as a nickname.
