Opinions on Sibset

AamazingAamazing
in Baby Names

Hi ladies!  First of all - first post here after lurking for a bit!  We are team green, and have a pretty good short list for a girl, but are struggling with boy's names, as we used our #1 name for DS :)

Both DH and I love the first name Malachi, but wonder if it is too match-y with our son's name, Micah.

What do you think? - Do Malachi and Micah work together as a sibset?

    I love both names but I do think they are too similar for siblings.

    I think they are too similar... not just how they sound but they look almost the same too.

    I think they are fine, a little matchy but not too bad.  I have a good friend name her sibset Noah and Noelle. There wasn't any other name they liked better and it works great!

    They do sound a lot like one another. Bit too close I think.

    I think it would work fine. I think they sound different enough to not be confusing. They are matchy, but not in a bad way, IMO.

    That would be like me naming DD2 Adeline and DD1 is Madeline!

    I do like the names, but too similar!

    I really like both names separately, but I think they are too matchy together as a sibset. Sorry.

    I think they are too close for siblings, sorry!  Could you use Malachi as a middle name? 

    Jonah Malachi?  Asher Malachi? Adam Malachi?

    I really like the name Micah, BTW :)
