Both Emilia and Amelie?

[toadstool32]

Can they be sisters? Or are the names too similar?

Same, so, no.

Almost the same name so no.

Far too similar

Way too similar.

I think they’re far too similar, people would be forever mixing the names up and I think it just sounds a bit off with the names being so alike.

No, lovely names, too similar

Much much too similar.

Hi,

Very similar although both lovely names

Not the same, if I'm reading Emelia and AmAlee, but still v similar and the tenancy to read Emelia and Amelia

Both very pretty but just a little too close.

Perhaps save one as a middle name?

Beautiful names but I’d swap one out for Elodie

Most people spell it Amelia and they sound pretty much the same (Amelia/Emilia) so you'd end with what sounds like Amelia and Amelie.

But they're both lovely names.

Thanks. I agree but just love them both! I have an Emilia and adore the name and really struggling to find another name that isn't a)in my huge family b) a kid I've taught

Isn't it essentially the same name?

Anna
Alexandra
Laura
Elspeth

Very similar, but I do know an Emilia shortened to Emmy and an Amelie shortened to Millie (cousins).

Too similar, unfortunately. How about:

Eloise
Camille
Adelaide
Rosalie
Naomi
Ottilie
Ophelia
Juliet
Lorelai
Penelope
Bethany
Briony
Erica
Coralie
Isabel
Verity
Felicity
Melody
Aurelia
Arabella
Annabel

Or Elodie, as a pp suggested?

Both lovely names but no, way too same for sisters, a definite no no

Virtually identical. I know a Beth with sister Betty and can't help but judge the parents.

Eloise and Elodie are lovely

In theory Emilia is EMelia but in my experience it's often lazily pronounced as Amelia (my DD has a friend who I always thought it was Amelia until I saw it written down). A carefully pronounced Amelie and Emilia would be ok, but most people will think you've used almost the same name twice.

Emelia and Aurelie?

Emelia and Florrie?

I love both names.
I agree they are very similar, but if you said Amelie first, "Amelie and Emilia" rolls off the tongue perfectly to me.
Saying Emilia and Amelie sounds more similar and harder to flow together. Maybe that's just me.
They both lovely names though!

Too similar I think, both lovely names though. How about,

Alma
Alba
Amber
Adelaide
Iris
Lorelai
Floris
Willow

I'm going against the grain but I think it's fine. They're not always going to be talked about in the same breath. They are their own person.
