Too Similar?

Is Layla and Elaina too similar for sisters?

If you yell Layla and Elaina, and I mean really yell not just say it,  it sounds like one long ridiculous name. Too many Ls and As. I couldn't say it without laughing.

For sisters? Yes. For cousins? No.

I actually dont think they are too close at all. So what they both end in -a sound, not too bad because otherwise they start with different sounds & are different number of syllables. Like Layla & Lisa would be horrible to me but yours are fine.

I'm yelling in my head and it's coming out "Laylainaaaa!" Too similar IMO.

I don't think they're too similar unless you don't enunciate well.

Way.

Initially I didn't think it was a big deal, but then I said them together out loud. I would get so tongue tied.

You may just have to get in the habit of reversing: Elaina Layla to avoid that. No big deal IMO

Far too much "LAY"
