We adopted our daughter from a friend of our family, so she has always been called by her current name, which hold a great meaning for us. My family is Jewish, which names after loved ones that have passed away. Two years ago, I lost both my great grandmother and grandmother (mother and daughter) and it was extremely important to us that we incorporate their names in to a name for our daughter. However, their names were Sylvia and Geraldine, neither or which we cared for. We also have a bio daughter that we wanted to include in the naming. So, like my parents did for my sister and me, we took the first letter of each name, and began looking for names from there. My eldest decided on Sophia almost immediately, and we all loved it. A middle name took a bit of convincing for my husband, but we now have our sweet Sophia Grace.
