I think Olivia and Aliah are too similar for a sister set. But congrats to them!

Olivia is really pretty and one of the nicer Shakespearean names. Aliah? Could be inconveniently close in sound - I can imagine them in 8 years from now, both ignoring their mother's calls because "we didn't know who you wanted". And it looks flimsy to me, but I've never met one so I've got no real associations. Jolie is pretty dire!

Aliah Jolie isn't awful, but I feel like the name kind of folds in on itself. Like when I say it Aliah goes one way and Jolie the other. I'm not sure how else to explain it. Either way the out come is causing me to become slightly tongue-tied when saying the name.I really like Olivia.

I get youI'm trying to say it like AH-lee-a jo-LEE but it's oddly difficult to do. There's a weird emphasis thing happening...

Yes, yes....That thing you are describing with Aliah Jolie is happening to me too. Weird.

I love Olivia. Aliah is nice but I prefer just Liah or Leah. :)
