Sienna and Ariana

We already have a Sienna, DH and I really love the name Ariana but I’m worried that the two names are too similar for siblings. Do you agree or am I making a big deal out of nothing.

The Ariana Grande did bother me first time round which is why we ended up going with Sienna before but I’ve always regretted writing it off so quickly over that connection.

DH and I actually disagree over our favourite pronunciation so at the minute we don’t know how we would pronounce it.

I think it would be considered to be named after Ariana Grande.
As long as you don’t mind this, I’d say it’s fine.

If you pronounce it Ari-arna it's fine but Ari-anna is too similar imo.

Both gorgeous names and now way similar but they still go together.
