Too similar to dog's name?

[AsanteSanaSquashBanana]

Our dog's name is Albie, our current favourite girls name is Phoebe. Do these sound too similar?

No.

No.

Nope!

No

Sorry to be blunt, but dogs don't live forever. The name is fine.

No

Not at all.

It's totally fine!

My name is Kelly and my mum called our dog Ellie... now that's bad!

Thanks. Looks like it will be Phoebe then

Daughter's cat is Albie but they call him Toots.

Just throwing that in to muddy the waters.

Phoebe is a lovely name by the way.

No

My DD is called Ella.
My MIL's cat is also called Ella.
Doesn't bother me or DH in the slightest. Little bit confusing for the cat though.

Growing up my parents adopted a dog called Gemma, my name is Emma so that got confusing!
But go for it :) I’ve always liked the name Pheobe

Thinking about it my DS and dogs name are similar. I'm always calling DS by the dogs name and vice versa .

I'd still use Phoebe, if you had a boy called Albie, I'd agree they're too similar but a dog is a dog.

Change the dog's name to Albini

Not too similar at all
Both lovely names though

I think they are both fab names and not to close at all

We have decided on Phoebe for a girl, although I'm 90% sure it will be a boy as DH's family only seem to produce boys!

Great choice OP. Good luck for the rest of your pregnancy

I think it's fine! Go for Phoebe, i love it
