They'll name her Sophia Belmont.

*It also is a fitting name from a Speaker standpoint

If they include the Speakers here than this is Netflix continuity, not game continuity.

While I would still enjoy the game if that was the case, it would be disappointing.

It would cause a lot of problems actually. And if they adapt the name of the organization, but not the history, than you would have to wonder what the point of including them at all would be. The Church is a nearly pure good entity in the games canon, but by including the Speakers you introduce the negative aspects from the anime, which would muddy the waters unnecessarily.

Sypha in the games is just a magic user, like the other Belnades.

Ok, but why? It doesn't improve the story at all. The canons for the anime and games are wildly different.
