Juliana and Anna?

Sunshine is mine · February 2011

not a sibset but Anna is my name. I would pronounce Juliana like Jew-lee-ah-nuh not Jew-lee-ann-uh! so would it be weird to have a daughter with a similar name as mine?

I don't think it would be weird at all. My DD is also Anna. I don't think it would be strange if she someday had a DD and named her Juliana.

I do think it's a little odd. Beautiful name though. If I remember right, you had several good names on your list. I think I voted for Ruby.

Juliana is my pick. No, it's not weird to give your child a similar name. Men do it all the time ;-)

I think it would be fine. Juliana is a pretty name, and I also like Julie as a nn.

As a sibset, this would be awful, but for mother daughter, I see no problem whatsoever, especially because the pronunciations are different. I have a friend whose name is Deanna (Dee-ann-uh) and her daughter is Gianna (Gi-ah-nuh). I have never thought this was weird.

I don't think that would be weird at all. I love the name Anna, it is simple and really cute.
