Linnea and Lydia

Are [name_f]Linnea[/name_f] and [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] too similar? I have a friend named [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], but love the baby name [name_f]Linnea[/name_f]. What do y’all think? Suggestions of names with similar vibe as [name_f]Linnea[/name_f]?

I don’t think they’re too similar if it’s just between your friend and your child. I think it’d be fine!

For siblings, yes.

For your friend and your baby, not too close at all!

[name_f]Linnea[/name_f] is lovely!

Too similar for sisters, yes. Not too similar for the daughter of a friend.

For sisters it would be, but since she’s a friend, I think it’s fine :slight_smile: [name_f]Linnea[/name_f] is pretty!

[name_f]Dahlia[/name_f], [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f], [name_f]Sunniva[/name_f], Leona/Leonie, [name_f]Amaia[/name_f], [name_f]Amara[/name_f], [name_f]Flora[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f], [name_f]Alina[/name_f] and [name_f]Aurelia[/name_f] came to mind

For siblings too close. For any other relationship, no.

Not even close if they were sisters! Can sisters not have the same capital letter? Why people say they would be too close if they were sisters? Anyways, go for it, because Linnea is stunning! And pretty rare too!

Fully in agreement that [name_f]Linnea[/name_f] and [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] would maybe be too close for siblings but definitely aren’t for your friend and your child. And love [name_f]Linnea[/name_f]- so distinctive and sophisticated

I adore [name_f]Linnea[/name_f] and I think it’s absolutely fine for daughters of friends to be [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] and [name_f]Linnea[/name_f]! [name_f]My[/name_f] two best friends have [name_f]Laila[/name_f] and [name_f]Lila[/name_f].
