I have friend Nicola her sisters are Angela and Pamela.

I don't see a problem.

Mind you the three I know are known as Nikki, Angie and Pam!

Yes - in fact, if I ever had another girl I would actively seek a name that ended in 'a' like my DD's.

Rose is lovely and equally simple and beautiful to Eva.

Yes definitely. They are both really lovely names.

My friends name ends in 'a' and so does her 4 sisters names. Think its quite sweet and you dont always realise unless someone points it out too you.

I have two dds with four letter names ending an a. I think they sound lovely together. I also think rosa is a great name. Some very strong women have been called rosa eg. Rosa Parkes and Rosa Luxembourg.

yes - just thinking the same! Already have an Eva and thinking of Anna or Isla if next one is a girl.

Just think, in Italy practically every single woman's name ends in "a" (noone under about 80 is called Rosa though!)

I think it was wordsworth who wrote a beautiful poem about a Rosabelle - why not have that instead if you don't want it to end in another a?

We have one ending in A and if DC2 is a girl she is going to have a name ending in A (as there are only 2 names we can vaguely reach a consensus on and they both end in A).

I love Eva and Rosa, well done on your impecable taste.

Also like Isla.

Yes - there are so many girls' names ending in the suffix -a that it is not a problem.

It's fine, but I prefer Rose.

Report
RachieB · 03/03/2009 11:04

they are lovely names

its not as if you have chosen eg Anabella and Isabella which would / could be shortened to the same NN !

or Eva and Ava which are too similar
