Hi,

I'm new to this forum and figured I'd give it a kick start with posting this :]

I'm due next February and expecting a little girl, and I have one name that I absolutely adore but I have a problem.

The name is Caitlin Joanna, two names of my best friends who, sadly, I lost in recent months. I thought this would be a really lovely way of honouring them. I also love the way it sounds and think the names flow well with eachother.

But I have a problem; my sister's name is also Caitlin! And I'm not sure if I'd like the idea of having both a daughter and sister with the same name - yes, I'm a bit picky! I'm really fond of the name! I thought about having Joanna as the first name, but I'm not liking the idea of it being a first name and would rather keep it as a second - heck, my friend even hated her name!!

What do you think? Should this really matter? Is it a problem? Thanks for your opinions ladies. :]
