do these names sound too similar

[tangofandango1]

i have an elodie. wanting to call next baby ottilie but my dad thinks they sound similar. do they please?

Yes sorry

Yeah, they do sorry.

Yes, they do, unfortunately. And saying “Elodie and Ottolie” is a bit of a mouthful.

They do, but then again, who cares, if you like them? They're both lovely names. When you have a third you can call her Romilly ;-)

I don't think they are too similar to use as sibling names. Why does it matter so much to people anyway? As long as you are happy with them I don't think it's a big deal if they rhyme or sound similar.

Yes

If there are truly no other names that you (and partner if involved) love then it's not too close to use, but ideally I would find something more different.

They sound very similar to me. Both pretty names though.

If its what you have your heart set on then go for it. Stop telling your family your name choices. But yes way too similar.

Yes they do

way too similar.

Yep, too close.

Ottoline instead?

I dont think they are too close actually. I'd go for it. Both lovely names

I think they work well together
i love the name Ottilie

With the German pronunciation of Ottilie (sort of Oteeliuh) perhaps not, but good luck with getting people to use that.

thanks everyone. i have no idea what to do there’s no other names i love and agree on with my partner

What about Matilda and use “Tillie” as a nn?

Or:
Otteline
Odette
Ophelia
