Hi all just wondering what your thoughts are on naming a baby Emily if she will have a cousin she sees a lot, but 10 years older, called Emma? Is this too close or acceptable?! Thanks!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Cousins is absolutely fine imo. Emma and Emily are only too close if they were in the same household.

I know sisters called Emily and Emma but I always thought they were far too similar! Cousins isn't too bad though if you really love the name.

Not a problem, as long as they don't both get shortened to Em.

Not perfect but ok

Not a problem at all. X

I don't see why not. I've known siblings with closer/more confusable names than that!

I think it’s okay. I’ve just been watching super nanny. They had 5 kids called
Emily Emerson Emmett Ember and
Emma-Jo which I do admit I did find kind of odd.

Definitely fine!

I think it's absolutely fine! Both lovely names.
