Noah and Owen, brothers?

Anonymous
I'm a woman and and have 2 brothers and my mom would mix our names up, so I don't think the names being too close in sound is an issue.

Totally agree.

Too similar.

"Owen and Noah" becomes "owennenoah" too easily

I hate the name Owen. Owens are always misbehaving, messy, have snot running from their noses, etc.

I don't hunk they are too similar, but I think of Noah as a Jewish name and Owen as a not Jewish name, if that matters.

I like both names and I don't think they're too similar.

I like them both. They sound good together!

Too similar.

Plus, Noah is a cool name, and Owen is pretty lame.

How about some of these?

I like both names and think they go well together. I have 2 daughters with similar sounding names and before the second was born, I worried that they were too similar. But now I couldn't imagine the youngest named anything else. If you really like both names, go for it!

Also FWIW my siblings and I had very different sounding first names - and my mom would still mix/merge them when calling for us. I wouldn't worry about that too much.
