Help! Sibling name for Orla!

We are expecting another baby and I love the name Isla but worried it’s too similar to Orla? Some friends think they go well together and others think they are too similar and prefer our other name choices such as Millie and Daisy. What are your thoughts?

Thanks! X

Alan?

Too similar really

Millie and Daisy are too twee though

How about Iona, Adela or Isadora ?

Yes I'd tend do agree with @Snowiscold
If you like Millie how about Amelia nn Millie?

Isla is far too similar to Orla.
Daisy is best out of your other choices.
Millie is too twee for my tastes -I’d feel shortchanged if called that when my sister had a full proper name.

I think the la at the end makes it a little too similar personally but if you love the name you should use it. Or perhaps how about Maya?
