Are these names too similar?

Hi there,

DD's name is Madelyn. We are team green and trying to think of potential girl names. DH is in LOVE with the name Natalie. Do you think that Madelyn and Natalie are too similar? Any suggestions to go with Madelyn?

 Thanks in advance!

It may be a little bit of a tongue twister if you say them together, but not enough to sway me.  I love both names.  Other suggestions:

Caroline, Charlotte, Gabriella, Audrey, Lauren, Camille/Camilla, Vivian, Genevieve

They do have a similar sound to them, but it's not awful.

I have no suggestions for you, but GL! :)

I have a friend whose daughters names are Madeline (Maddie) and Natalie. I don't see anything wrong with it.

Natalie is a very pretty name, and I think it would go well with your DD's name.

I don't think Madelyn and Natalie are too similar.

My cousins are Devyn, Madelyn, and Brianne. Clearly my aunt had a thing for Ys.

I don't think they're terrible together, BUT, I will tell you, as a Natalie, whenever someone yells "Madelyn!" at the playground, my head turns. It's the "ada" sound.

If you can yell both of them together, then I think they are fine (and you can).  I find myself having to holler for both kids at once often ;)

All the Natalies I know go my Nat/Nattie and all the Madeline's go by Maddie. Maddie and Nattie are way too close, so I'd only be okay with the combo if you never use nicknames or if you choose something like Talia/Tallie.
