Are nicknames [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] and [name_f]Essie[/name_f] to close for siblings? Full names would be [name_f]Melody[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] and [name_u]Raven[/name_u] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f].
The full names make a stunning sibset! Although [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] and [name_f]Essie[/name_f] are very similar, as nicknames I dont think it would be an issue. You could always find new nicknames if it did turn out to be confusing.
I say go for it. My brother’s name differed from mine by a single vowel sound and we were a year apart. It was a non-issue. Your choices are gorgeous. I really like [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] in the middle with [name_u]Raven[/name_u].
Since the FNs are so different, I think it’s fine - it would sound like you’d given them similar nns because it’s cute.
I think as nicknames they’re fine, if they were the full names then I would be inclined to call it a dealbreaker, however this is fine.
I think it should work; after all, they’re just nicknames.
I agree I think it’s fine - actually I think it’s cute
