Hm, they sound very similar but they’re different names - one is from Elizabeth and the other from Alexandra. I think they sound too alike.

AverageMummy · 28/07/2019 21:29

Sorry but yes - what about Alessandra?

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 28/07/2019 21:30

Yes

Too similar

DramaAlpaca · 28/07/2019 21:33

Much too similar.

bigmap · 28/07/2019 21:40

Is it pronounced 'ah-less-ee-ah'? If so I don't think they're too alike

blubelle7 · 28/07/2019 23:17

I think they are fine

Ok thanks ladies. I don't think I could have Alessandra as my last name is long too. Back to the drawing board 😊
