[Opinions] Re: Elisabeth & Isabella
in reply to a message by Karcoolka
Apart from the spellings being horrendous (IMO) I think they'd be fine.
I know the majority seems to think "Its like they have the same name!" But they don't. The fact is that Isabelle is a name separate from Elisabeth. They may have had a common ancestor but they are different names now. If you were to ask this question on a site about names but perhaps not with name nerds you'd find a very different response.
Its when parents name children Lee and Leigh, Mary and Marie, Anne and Anna, Jon and John that they're annoying. Those names, though different, not only sound alike but are also spelled similar. That's when you should be getting people yelling at you.
Just my humble opinions.
