We really like the first name [name_u]Shea[/name_u] for baby girl #2, but our last name sounds like [name_m]Chay[/name_m]-bers. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you think these are too similar? I think so, husband doesn’t.
I think these are pretty close-- I probably would not use them or any fn ending with a long A sound.
Some other possibilities:
[name_u]Arden[/name_u]
[name_u]Aubrey[/name_u]
[name_u]Bryn[/name_u]
[name_f]Bryony[/name_f]
[name_f]Carly[/name_f]
[name_f]Chloe[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_u]Devon[/name_u]
[name_u]Ellis[/name_u]
[name_u]Hollis[/name_u]
[name_u]Kelsey[/name_u]
[name_f]Leah[/name_f]
[name_f]Lola[/name_f]
[name_u]Marlowe[/name_u]
[name_f]Mia[/name_f]/[name_f]Mila[/name_f]
[name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_u]Rory[/name_u]
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_u]Shelby[/name_u]
[name_u]Skye[/name_u]
[name_f]Sonia[/name_f]
[name_u]Sydney[/name_u]/[name_f]Sidonie[/name_f]
[name_f]Zoe[/name_f]
Too close for me I’m afraid. I’d pick a similar name without that “ay” sound.
If it’s the look of [name_u]Shea[/name_u] you like, how about:
[name_f]Rhea[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Clea[/name_f]
[name_f]Leah[/name_f]
[name_f]Tia[/name_f]
[name_f]Mia[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] nn [name_f]Bea[/name_f]
If it’s the sound of [name_u]Shea[/name_u] you like, how about:
[name_f]Sian[/name_f] (shaan)
[name_f]Saoirse[/name_f] (sir-sha)
[name_f]Cheryl[/name_f]
[name_f]Charmaine[/name_f]
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f]
[name_f]Kayleigh[/name_f] / [name_f]Hayley[/name_f]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Ava[/name_f]
I think it’s too close.
