Too similar?

Hello  

 My son's name is Evan.  If I have a girl, I really like the name Evelyn.  Do you think they are too similar?  I appreciate your opinions. 

Re: Too similar?

  • Yeah, way too similar and matchy.  They are both good names but definitely not for siblings.  You probably wouldn't name sibling Michael and Michelle, right?

    Yes.  It's practically the same name.
  • Yes, too close. The beginning of each is exactly the same.

    What about Vivian?

  • Those are really really close, I'd think it would be confusing. Sorry!

    Very similar. But maybe since you like it a lot, it could be used as a middle name..?
  • Great names, but way too similar! :)

  • I also think it's too matchy but like someone else said maybe a middle name since you like it so much. Good luck!

  • Thanks, everyone.  I was in denial, they are definitely too close. 
  • Yes. For siblings, they are very similar.

  • Yes, honestly I think they are too similar. They are both very nice names though, but just too close for sibs IMO.

  • Sorry, but it's too similar. :( We've also had to cross off some girl names from our list (Natalie/Natalia in particular) for future daughters due to our son's name.
