This might sound a bit silly, but can I name my baby Charlie if my niece is called Harley? Im worried that it sounds too similar but have my heart set on Charlie 😢

Love the name Charlie but for a girl.

It wouldnt personally bother me tbh. If you were naming
both of your children Charlie and Harley it may be a bit too
similar sounding, but as for cousins, i dont think its too much
of a worry. You are going to find many cousins with similar
sounding names. I have older cousins called Barry, Gary and
Harry.

Others might disagree, with me, but at the end of the day, only
you can know if you will feel comfortable with this decision.

Good luck!

As cousins it’s fine I think.

I know siblings called Charlie and Harley. I personally think it's a bit much for siblings but cousins would be fine.

I think it's fine. Would be a bit matchy for siblings but for cousins it's absolutely fine x

Yep, it's okay. No worries. My name rhymes with one of my cousins, and I have another cousin with my name.

I think it fine! Charlie is a beautiful name.
