Due a baby girl in the next few weeks and I’m struggling to decide on a name. I’ve been considering Martha or Phoebe, however I have a George already and wonder if phoebe is too similar in spelling to George??

Think you've got pregnancy brain. No resemblance. But Martha is nicer and much less common

Totally different. Martha is far prettier though and goes much better with George x

I think it's fine. I much prefer Martha too. Lovely name.

I don’t get how they’re similar. They both end in e?

They don't sound similar.

I much prefer Martha though.

I wouldn’t give it a second thought; they don’t sound similar and the letters aren’t in the same order

Totally different

Phoebe and George are completely different sounds so I wouldn’t worry about similar sounds. I absolutely love Phoebe but do think Martha sounds better with George

I think they're both fine to use with George, I do think Martha goes nicer though

I don’t see any resemblance! But Martha is much nicer than Phoebe.

They sound different though so I don't think it matters, it's not like say Oliver and Olivia.
