Too similar

are colette nn coco and charlotte nn char or charlie
too similar for sisters? i feel that the full names may be too close but the nickname aren’t… tyia : )

If they always go by the nicknames, I think you would be okay. But if they go by their full names I think it would be too close – if you call Colette’s name from a different room, [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] could easily mishear it as her own and vice versa. That’s what I think makes siblings’ names too close, personally, because it would happen with my brother and I and it gets pretty frustrating!

I wouldn’t say they’re too close, they’re similar, but not too close. [name_u]Coco[/name_u] and [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] are not close, so if they mainly go by their nns it would be easier on them. [name_f]My[/name_f] mom always accidentally called me by my sisters name and they sound so different, so [name_f]Colette[/name_f] and [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] might be hard to be distinguishable when there young due to the same sounds. I would suggest a slightly different name or middle name spots

[name_f]Nicolette[/name_f]
[name_f]Celeste[/name_f]
[name_u]Charlie[/name_u] -full name-
[name_f]Juliette[/name_f]
[name_f]Odette[/name_f]
[name_f]Corrine[/name_f]

The nicknames definitely aren’t too close and I don’t think the full names are either because the stress is on different syllables.

[name_f]Colette[/name_f] & [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] are wonderful :slightly_smiling_face:

I think they’re fine. They share the some tte ending but the ette and otte sounds are pretty different when i say them, as are [name_f]Char[/name_f] and Co.

No, not too similar at all! Those are such adorable names. :heart_eyes: [name_f]Cosette[/name_f] might be a nice option to make them a little more different, but I don’t think [name_f]Colette[/name_f] and [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] would be too much!

I personally do feel like the full names are too similar. But if they always (or almost always) go by their nicknames, I think it’d be okay. [name_f]My[/name_f] brother and sister don’t have similar full names, but rather, really similar nicknames and they both answer when someone calls one of them all the time and that can really be frustrating. So, I think having not so similar nicknames (like [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] and [name_u]Coco[/name_u] are) would solve that problem in this situation!

This, although I also really liked @Gia.P.55’s suggestion of Nicolette!

i agree with everyone else [name_f]Collette[/name_f] and [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] are way too similar. [name_m]Even[/name_m] though the nicknames aren’t, how likely is it that they’ll exclusively go by their nickname?
