Too close/matchy for brothers?? Everett & Beckett

Question

Our son is Everett. Due with second baby boy next month. We are NOT trying to match/coordinate the names-- Beckett just happens to be a name on our short list & I'm wondering if I should toss it out solely because it's too close/matchy with Everett. 🤔

Answer

I like Beckett. But I think Beckham would sound better.

Answer

How about Beck instead? It's still close to Beckett but not too much like Everett.

Answer

I know this is forever old, but same boat! Our son is Everitt though (family spelling).

Answer

Are you done at two? Then I think it’s fine.
If you plan to have more kids, then I’d avoid giving just two of them such matchy names.

Answer

I think it’s okay! I had this same dilemma ... my first is Annabelle and I loved Gabrielle but ultimately went with Gabriella. Looking back, Gabrielle would have been fine! I think the same ending is ok.
