ella asked Shannon Messenger:

What's the second closest name you wanted for Sophie at the beginning of the series?

Shannon Messenger I considered a LOT of names. And one name I really loved was Alexandra (or Alexa) because it meant "Helper and Defender of Mankind." But I decided that meaning was a bit too on the nose, and I liked that Sophie was more general in it's meaning (it means "wisdom")
