The name Sophia means ‘wisdom’ or ‘skill’.
More specifically it means ‘knowledge of, acquaintance with; sound judgment, practical wisdom; cunning, shrewdness; philosophy’ and ‘wisdom personified’. Furthermore, ‘divine wisdom or holy wisdom’.
Sophia, also spelt Sofia, is a Greek derivative from the abstract noun sophos “wise”, indicating the name variant, ‘Sophie’. Sophia’s region of origin is the Roman Empire.
Sophia was the name of an early, probably mythical, saint who died of grief after her three daughters were martyred during the reign of the emperor Hadrian. Legends about her probably arose as a result of a medieval misunderstanding of the phrase Hagia Sophia “Holy Wisdom”, which is the name of a large basilica in Constantinople.
This name was common among continental European royalty during the Middle Ages, and it was popularized in Britain by the German House of Hanover when they inherited the British throne in the 18th century.
The name has been in common use in England since the 17th century, when it was bestowed upon the infant daughter of James I. In addition, it is the name of characters from the novels Tom Jones (1749) by Henry Fielding and The Vicar of Wakefield (1766) by Oliver Goldsmith.
Famous people who share the name Sophia:
Sophia Loren, an Italian actress known to be one of the last surviving stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood and Sofia Coppola, a director and also the daughter of Frances Ford Coppola. She maybe considered one of the celebrity daughters that caused the name’s boom in popularity in the United States.
