Emilie and Lily

[boooooooostoncalling]

yeah or nay?
dd1 is Lily Isabelle
dd2 due very soon would be Emilie Charlotte.

Is Lily and Emily ridiculous as both end on 'y' sound and have a 'i' in the middle? dh is french and names often end with i.e. rather than a.

Am i mad to consider having two sisters called emilie and lily?

Too similar. Too many Ls.

Sophie is lovely

I have an Emilia and Lily Rose, but I think the endings of Emilie and Lily are too similar.

My Emilia gets Emmy though, and your Emilie may well do too, and Emmy and Lily aren't too similar.

Oh right your H doesn't like Sophie.

What about Susie and Lily or Sasha and Lily

What about Eleanor or Florence?

Martha
Elisabeth
Constance
Alice
Seraphina
Tabitha
Jemima

So many lovely names to choose from!

How about Appoline? It has a similar lilty sound to it as Emilie and works in both languages. I know it's seen as a 'posh name' (I think?) in France, but it is lovely.

I think they sound fine together. Stop worrying op, all is well 🙂

I think Emilie will get called Millie for short and you'll end up with Millie and Lily Sorry op, too similar for me!

I think Lily & Emilie together is fine.
