Are the names Cora and Cassia too similar for sisters?

No, i don't think so. I think they sound beautiful.

Whilst they are pretty similar I think they sit just on the right side of the 'ok' line! I might be tempted to use coralie (hence giving a difference in the end sounds) for the full name and them you could still use Cora as the nn. Lovely names! Cassia is on our long short list.

Too similar I think. Do you already have a Cora or are you having twins?

nasara · 29/09/2012 17:43

I already have a Cora.

too similar I think. Cora is lovely though.

To me cassia is a kind of bark used in Indian cooking.

Too similar IMHO

Love the name Cassia, almost had it for dd but went with Carrie as don't like 'Cas' but quite similar to Cora? Told friend about using it for ex so she named her daughter Kassia can't explain why but I think it's horrid with z 'K' not that I've said if course!!

Thanks so far - it really does help hearing other people's views Grin

I think they're too similar with the same start and same end. If you were planning to call her Cassie normally I think it'd be alright.

Spons · 14/10/2012 11:53

Not too similar at all.

squoosh · 14/10/2012 18:46

I love the name Cassia. Cass/Cassie are both great nicknames.
