I really don't wanna say that this spelling is ugly, but sadly, this is exactly what I'm trying to say. Not everything can be spelled with a y, sadly.

Use Sophie, Sophia, or Sofia instead; your choice! It looks like parents don't know how to spell "Sophie" correctly.

Not a nice spelling. I don't like this name but it looks much better spelled Sophie.

I think Sophy is a great name that deserves to make a comeback.

Actually, the Sophy is a variety of rose, which has a pale pink colour. I was named after said rose, and I actually prefer this flower-name meaning to the stodgy, traditionally-associated "wisdom".
