Still brainstorming a boy name for brother Ian. Is Owen too matchy with Ian? Other suggestions?

It's a little too close for me. Also, saying "Owen and Ian" out loud just sounds like I am saying a whole lot of vowels, and not actual names.

Great on their own but kind of a tongue twister when said together.
Ian & Adam?
