Sib Set names? Emmet and Everett (Rhett)

EmmetsMom

Are these names way too close?

SS?

I don't mind two sibs with matching first initials-- I just think these names are too close in general-- they are both 2 syllables and have the same "et" ending.

Thanks ladies! This is what I was thinking too! I'm just having the hardest time finding a name I like and DH doesn't seem to believe that Rhett is a name all by itself (apparently he has never seen Gone with the Wind!). We are team green and I haven't found a single name I like, and if I do, it just sounds awful with darling son's name or our last name!

I love the name Emmet but I have an Everett and it would be off the table for me. Too close.

How about Rhys?

OOOH! I've never heard that name. How do you pronounce it? I love the name Ralls (former student of mine), but DH thinks people wouldn't know how to pronounce it (rhymes with halls).

You pronounce it: Reese/ Reece.

I don't mind that they both start with E, but they are too similar.

I didn't pick because I don't think it's awful, but I definitely think they are too similar.

Reid, Rory, Graham, Cade, Declan?

I'm fine with using another E name but those two sound almost identical
