Naia or Gaia

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all,

I don’t think it’s necessarily too close, although it depends on how often you see that cousin! If you’re worried about them being too close, I’d go for [name_f]Gaia[/name_f] over [name_f]Naia[/name_f] - it sounds more different to [name_f]Maya[/name_f] than [name_f]Naia[/name_f]!

I do also just prefer [name_f]Gaia[/name_f] - I think [name_f]Naia[/name_f] feels a little made-up, whereas [name_f]Gaia[/name_f] more established, which I like.

I like [name_f]Gaia[/name_f], with it’s mother nature feel. [name_f]Naia[/name_f] may be too close to [name_f]Maya[/name_f].

[name_f]Gaia[/name_f]. A mythological name with substance.

i love gaia! i think the closeness depends on how often you’d see that relative, etc!

The closeness would bother me but depends how often they’ll be mentioned together.

I prefer [name_f]Gaia[/name_f]!

I’m liking [name_f]Gaia[/name_f] today! [name_u]Bright[/name_u], floral and pretty! Maybe if you see [name_f]Maya[/name_f] all the time it would be too close, but if not, I’d say it was fine

[name_f]Gaia[/name_f].

[name_f]Gaia[/name_f] :seedling::green_heart::herb:
They are close, but I agree with others - it depends.

[name_f]Gaia[/name_f]! They all rhyme to me, so I think it depends which one you like more. [name_f]Gaia[/name_f] feels more fresh and interesting

I think [name_f]Naia[/name_f] is prettier, but it does sound too similar to [name_f]Maya[/name_f]. If you are close to this cousin, I think both of them are too close though.

It is close but if you like the name then you like the name. I prefer [name_f]Gaia[/name_f]

[name_f]Gaia[/name_f]. I think the rhymey thing with cousin mattering depends on how much you see them and possibly also on the closeness in age. Ie if cousin much older not a problem. If cousin close in age and you see them often might be confusing (albeit very temporarily) for two little ones.
