Definitely prefer Sophie. It just seems friendlier and more approachable to me.
Overall I prefer Sophia, it feels more international and "grown up".
I prefer Sofia. I think it has more personality and spunk than Sophie.
Both are cute and I have used both in short stories. I think I prefer Sofia. Although I wouldn't use either for real, they are too common.
I'd go with Sophia. St. Sophia is one of my favorites. I also like the idea that a Sophia could be called Sophie so I wouldn't really have to choose.
Fun fact: When I was a young teen one of my favorite names was Sophia but spelled Sopheja in a half-baked attempt to use a Joseph name without actually using Joseph. I just don't know... lol

Sophie, less pretentious for me
I adore Sophie! I'm so sick of Sophia / Sofia , it's a nice name just overused to the point that it's bland.
Sophie reminds me of my favorite girl name Sylvie. I also love the spelling Sofie - esp. in the right combo!
Sophie is light and soft sounding with that French flair! I used to dislike Sophie actually. I've only come to see her appeal quite recently.

For me it would be at the (perhaps changing?) preference of the nam-ee - considering that one form may serve an AKA form.
I love the sound and simplicity of Sophie.
