I wanted to name our little girl Sophia, but have decided against it because it is very popular right now. So, I am thinking of Anna Sophia.

Recently, however, someone just told me that there is a childhood actress with this name. I admit that I am out of the loop when it comes to pop culture things like this, but I had no idea.

Do you think that everyone is going to think that my daughter is named after this actress? And what do you think of the name in general?

The child actress is Annasophia, not Anna Sophia, and I wouldn't assume your daughter was named after her. If you really like the name, use it.

My name is Anna, and I think it's a good name. The combo Anna Sophia is pretty. I like girls' names where both the first and the middle name end with a.

I love Anna Sophia. Are you using it as a double-barrel first name. I love names like that...(like Mary Claire, Mary Kate, Anne Marie, etc..). The child actress is named AnnaSophia Robb. I like it better like Anna Sophia. AnnaSophia looks cramped and Anna Sophia looks clean and sophisticated. She was the actress in "Because of Winn-Dixie", "Bridge to Terabithia", and the new "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory".

I ADORE the name Anna, I think it is just about perfect. It sounds so heavenly to me.

I LOVE Anna Sophia. I wouldn't have assumed that you named her after the actress, they're two completely different spellings. And, like you said, Anna Sophia are two common names. I love it. I say go with it.
