    Too similar?

    I know it's early days to be thinking about names, but we had been discussing them even before we got pregnant If this baby is a boy, I really like the name Tobias, but we already have Tabitha. Too similar do you think? T doesn't get called Tabby (although she might later on but now we have a different nickname for her) so there isn't the Tabby/Toby kind of confusion to worry about...

    I can see where you are coming from but I like both names and think they sound good together

    I think they are too similar, but just my opinion, got to go with what you are happy with!

    Thanks for your input; I'm keen on the name because then all three will have a name with the first syllable ending in 'b'... still have to convince M of Tobias though. If not, I've still got a couple up my sleeve!

    There's actually a huge benefit of them sounding close - it means their names roll really nicely off the tongue when you're yelling at them!

    mmm i think they are a bit similar.
    i always wanted a girl Tylah and my second son we called Tyron, now i dont think i would use Tylah because i would want to call both of them Ty!
