I like both names, might be a bit of a mouth full if your calling their names in a park, but you won't be doing that forever.

I think there are enough names out there to choose something a bit more different. Use as a middle name maybe?

My kids' names are a tiny bit rhymey, but tbh they are separate people, and it's only for the next few years that they'll be living together. Most of the people I work with, for example, don't even know my brother's name.

I like both names but when you're yelling up the stairs will you always get both coming running ignoring

Too similar I think.

How about Lucia instead if you're unsure?

I think it's nice. As others have said they are individual people and will grow up most likely living apart. Can't see it's an issue.

Quite samey. And anything like mail with initials on in future will get mixed up.

How about Mary?

Really...?

There's a whole world of names out there. You don't have to go for two-syllable names starting with L, as nice as they might be.

Think outside the box. Branch out. Lucy is fine, but there's a myriad other beautiful names out there, just waiting to be bestowed on a lovely baby. :)
