Too much like Elsa & Anna?

Hello! We already have a daughter named [name_f]Anna[/name_f] (rhymes with Banana) and are expecting baby girl #2. We love the name [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]. It occurred to me that [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] is similar to [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Elsa[/name_f]. The two Anna’s are pronounced differently, but am still unsure what to think.

Frozen is suchhh a big movie franchise and are wondering if other people would think it sounds a bit similar too. What do you think?!!

Any other girl name ideas? Our last name is [name_m]Evans[/name_m].

Hello!

Personally, I don’t think they’re too much like Frozen at all. I wouldn’t have thought of it if you hadn’t mentioned it, I think [name_f]Anna[/name_f] & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] are lovely.

Other ideas that I think would go nicely with [name_f]Anna[/name_f]:

[name_f]Edith[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Greta[/name_f]
[name_u]Hazel[/name_u]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]
[name_u]Zoe[/name_u]

Good luck!

I wouldn’t have made the connection, personally. They’re both pretty classic names, so I think it’s fine!

I don’t to hunk they”re too close, they look similar but sound wise I wouldn’t put it together. [name_f]Anna[/name_f] & [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] wouldn’t be my first thought when meeting an [name_f]Anna[/name_f] & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] in person,

I see no problem with [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] sounds really cute with your surname. :blush:

At most, it’s faintly similar, but nowhere near enough to be gimmicky. [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] and [name_f]Anna[/name_f] are stunning together!

Eliza’s zippy and fresh so here’s some other ideas:

[name_f]Elise[/name_f]
[name_f]Julia[/name_f]
[name_f]Eva[/name_f]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] (I know a sibset of [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Emma[/name_f] and it’s not too similar sounding)
[name_f]Naomi[/name_f]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f]
[name_f]Louisa[/name_f]
[name_f]Eloise[/name_f]
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]

I don’t think they’re too similar, especially because you pronounce [name_f]Anna[/name_f] differently than they do in Frozen.

i don’t think they’re too similar at all! both names are so classic and well-established that i would have never made the connection.

I don’t think it’s too similar since [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] are both pretty classic names. [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] [name_m]Evans[/name_m] is wonderful!

If you pronounce Anna as ahh-nuh like the movie character, then that’s pretty close. If you pronounce it as anne-uh, then it’s even better (less similar to the movie). I think people will be reminded of the movie either way, but it’s not too close that it’s weird! Anna and Eliza is very cute. :heart:

There not too close in my opinion. [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] are both gorgeous names and they’re stunning together!

I’m pretty sure I’ve met sisters [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] and I wouldn’t have thought of Frozen

I don’t think it would be an issue because the pronunciation is different and both names are pretty common.

I think [name_f]Anna[/name_f] & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] are a gorgeous pair–I definitely wouldn’t jump straight to Frozen if I heard them together!

[name_f]Anna[/name_f] & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] are so very cute together! I don’t think of [name_f]Elsa[/name_f] & [name_f]Anna[/name_f] when I see those names, but even if I did, who doesn’t want to be a Disney princess? I’m sure your daughters will love it while they’re young. And by the time they grow up, Frozen will no longer be relevant enough for the association to matter. :slightly_smiling_face:

I don’t think it’s a problem

I can’t say I see the connection. If you were picking [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Elsie[/name_f] then perhaps a smidge.

[name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] make a lovely sibset! I also think [name_f]Elise[/name_f] could work. [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Elise[/name_f] :slightly_smiling_face:
