Fern?

Love the name Fern, what do you think? My first daughter is called Phoebe. Would they sound odd together? Both F sounds, but the F and Ph spellings feel oddly mismatched.

Fern is a lovely name, though the immediate assoication is with Fern Britton, so I guess it depends whether you feel that's a good or bad thing.

Phoebe and Fern as a combo reminds me of Phineas and Ferb... www.imdb.com/title/tt0852863/

It's ok, and is the nicest spelling. Quite normal to like names with similar sounds.
It makes me think of Fern Britton, who I like,
