- Tzofia
Origin:
HebrewMeaning:
"a scout of Jehovah"Description:
The "Tz" beginning of Tzofia represents the Hebrew letter tzadi, which is pronounced more like ts.

While Tzofia is a distinct name from the megapopular Sophia and Sofia, many people will hear it as a cognate and pronounce it the same...or like Zofia.
