| I know it's the same name in 2 languages, but is it weird as an American family if we name our daughters Elizabeth and Isabel??? I love both names! |

| I agree that I love both names, but it's a little weird. I know that they're the same name, but I bet 90% of Americans wouldn't know that. |

It's weird. I know a family with a Carlos and a Charlie. Also weird.
Assuming you already have the Elizabeth, what about Isadore or Elanor? Or Amelia or Alicia? |

| Instead of Isabel, what about just Bella? |

| I know a family of twin girls who did this. Very weird. Pick one. |

| Very weird. I would think you didn't know they are the same. |

I know someone who named her girls Ella and Lola -- and regretted it because they sounded so close people screwed it up all the time.
I think you will regret this. |

I'm an Elizabeth. I would think the names are similar but not the same at all.
So go for it. |

| They just sound too similar. |

| Yes I think weird. Maybe Annabel instead? |

Also wanted to add I didn't even know they were the same name in different languages and still would think they're too similar. |
