Ada / Adam?

Does Ada resemble Adam too much? I was going thru my name list and it suddenly struck me. Does anyone else see the resemblance or is it really nothing? On the subject, what do you think about Ada?

ETA: I say Ay-duh for Ada

I wasn't planning to :) I just meant, does Ada look too much like Adam?

I think they're fine together because they don't sound similar.

At least in English, but I know a Polish married couple Ada & Adam, and in Polish Ada is pronounced exactly like Adam without the m, which I find amusing.

I love Ada. It's short and sweet but has some character to it.

For me Ada and Adam are ok together, because while they may look similar, they sound different. "EY-day" and "AH-dum". Adda and Adam would be too similar.

I think Ada is cute. I think I prefer Ida a tad more because it's harder to love and a bit "louder" in its vintageness, but Ada is very pretty in a quiet way.
