Our cat is called Nola and we have found out our baby is a girl. I can’t stop coming back to the name Mila, I really really like it. I know they are totally different names, but when I say them out loud they sound too alike I think. DH doesnt see it as an issue and thinks they are different enough to use, plus he says it’s not like we have two children with similar names, it’s just the cat! But I don’t know, it’s kind of stopping me from using it

Are the names Mila and Nola too similar?

One is a person and the other a cat it's not like you'll be saying their names together like you would if they were siblings.
Use the name you love, as sad as it is the cat won't live forever and neither will they care if the name you pick is similar to theirs.
