Louis and ........

[Rapha]

Lucie. Do you think these are too similar for a sibling set? I already have Ds Louis now expecting DD. DH is French. What are the nicknames for Lucie?

[M1985]

I don't think they're too close necessarily but I depends what you shorten them too, in my head id call them both 'Lou' neither can really be shortened to anything else.
I had the same issue with naming my dd2. Dd1 is called Phoebe and I liked Felix for baby #2 which in themselves aren't too similar but both would be shortened to Fi or something similar and I just thought it would cause too much confusion

[gaahhnonicknamesleft]

No. Too close, sorry

[EeB00]

I think too close, sorry. I can't think of a nickname that doesn't have the 'Lu' sound in it.

[Rhubarbgarden]

Far too similar.

[Vijac]

I think they're too close really but but nice names independently so go for it if you really want to.

[caughtinthemoment]

Too similiar for me sorry.

[GotToBeInItToWinIt]

Yes too similar for me too, sorry

[SantasLittleMonkeyButler]

No, both lovely names but too similar to use both.

[Alisvolatpropiis]

Way too similar.

[Rapha]

Thanks you have convinced me , too similar ! Back to the drawing board.

[ShatnersBassoon]

Sophie, Claire, Clara, Anna, Laura, Juliet.

There are loads of girls names that sound the same or very similar in French and English. Two Lou names would be unusual enough for people to notice and comment.

[Alisvolatpropiis]

Manon?

[pilates]

Camille

[ch1134]

My 2 favourite names too... I have a Louis and am gutted I can't ever now have a Lucy!

[Rapha]

It's a shame! I agree. Thanks for the other suggestions . Like Manon but would not use it. Don't think Camille would be pronounced right in English. Juliette is pretty. Also like Ines and Margot but need to work on DH !

[Alisvolatpropiis]

Louis and Margot sound very good together
