A bit, especially if Grace is ever Gracie

Yes.

Rockaby · 25/05/2017 14:23

Yes, I think they are a bit too similar.

We currently have a Macy, so no idea if Grace would be Gracie, but she probably would. Just like Macy is sometime 'Mace'!

I think they are, sorry.

But if it is the 'ay' sound in both of them that you like, how about:
Freya
Kate
Ava

Also immediately makes me think of Macy Gray

goldenrachita · 25/05/2017 17:23

Yes, sorry.

sexymuthafunker · 25/05/2017 17:24

Yes.

DramaAlpaca · 25/05/2017 21:05

Yes, too similar.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 25/05/2017 23:13

I think they are.

midsomermurderess · 25/05/2017 23:35

Macy Grey here too.

Why are they too similar?!

why are they too similar?!

To me they are too similar because the mace part of Macy and Grace rhyme. Every little girl I know named Grace gets called Gracie so I think you might have to put real effort into making sure they don't get called Macy and Gracie!
