Eliza and Elisa???? Or Eliza and Elijah???

Question

My friend has twins and already has one of them's name in mind....Eliza. What should we name the other???

Answer 1

My Daughter is Eliza. If the 2nd is a girl I would prefer Elisia. Note the spelling.
Happy Christmas.

Answer 2

Um, you already asked this. But NOT Elisa and Elijah. That's way too close to Eliza, and it will be confusing. Maybe they can just start with the same letter. Life if it's a girl, Erica or Emily or Emma. If it's a boy, Eric or Edward. Good Luck!

Answer 3

What gender is the other twin? Eliza and Elisa are girl's names, while Elijah is definitely a boy's name.

Since they're twins, and likely to be stuck together as a 'set' for most of their lives, she might as well give them their own identities lol. Eliza and Elisa are way too similar for me. Plus, people are probably going to have a hard enough picking them apart (unless they're fraternal, if they're b/g twins or whatever) lol, having nearly the same name won't help.

If the other twin is a girl, what about names that are also pretty and classic, like Eliza: Eliza and Lily, Eliza and Rose, Eliza and Violet, Eliza and Kate, Eliza and Jane, Eliza and Charlotte, Eliza and Rory, Eliza and Gwen, Eliza and Zoe, Eliza and Clare, Eliza and Penelope, Eliza and Annabel, Eliza and Olive, Eliza and Isabel, Eliza and Kiley, Eliza and Lucy, Eliza and Juliet, Eliza and Mathilde, Eliza and Betsy (both nicknames for Elizabeth), Eliza and Bess, Eliza and Annette, Eliza and Sadie, Eliza and Madeline, Eliza and Hailey, Eliza and Sophie, Eliza and Chloe, etc.

I really like the sound of Eliza and Sadie, Eliza and Annabel (double vowel names sound great), Eliza and Violet, Eliza and Lucy, Eliza and Kate, and Eliza and Jane.

If the other is a boy, what about: Eliza and Oliver, Eliza and James, Eliza and Derek, Eliza and Henry, Eliza and Adrian, Eliza and Freddie, Eliza and Guy, Eliza and Graham, Eliza and David, Eliza and Zachary, Eliza and Benjamin, Eliza and Christian, Eliza and Nick, Eliza and Wesley, Eliza and Kale, Eliza and Owen, Eliza and Vance (Van), Eliza and Samuel, Eliza and Caleb, Eliza and Victor, Eliza and Winston (Win), Eliza and Iain, Eliza and Hugo, Eliza and Milo, Eliza and Luke, Eliza and Damien, Eliza and Charles, etc.

I love the sound of Eliza and Oliver (double vowels again), Eliza and Owen, Eliza and Henry, and Eliza and Nicholas.

Good luck and congrats to your friend!!!

Answer 4

It depends if she's having 2 girls or a boy and a girl. I definitely don't like Elisa or Elijah with the name Eliza. Way too similar. It seems like she wants the names to start with the same letter, so...

Instead, for girls, what about:
Emily
Emma
Emilia
Erin
Ellen
Erika
Elaine
Eva

And for boys how about:
Ethan
Erik
Evan
Elliot
Emmit
Emory
Ezekiel
Ezra

Answer 5

Eliza and Elijah. Because if its Eliza and Elisa only one letter changed in the name and they are similar sounding letters.

Answer 6

I don't mind Eliza and Elijah, although they are still WAY too similar. Eliza and Elisa are even more so. THe thing is, if they are Eliza and Elijah you can call them Liza and Eli - so it's a bit more different.

Answer 7

Eliza and Elisa are for girls and Eliza and Elijah is a boy and a girl. So it depends what she is having.

Answer 8

Elizabeth & Elijah

other "E" names

Girls:
Elyse
Emily
Emerson
Emma
Elisha
Ellen

Boys:
Elliot
Eric

Answer 9

It is so confusing to name your children with similar names. I know this from experience. We have in our family (which includes cousins) a Joe, a Joey, a Jodi, a Joan, and I almost named my daughter Joella. (Thankfully I came to my senses.)

I love Elisa or Elise as it has a softer sound than Eliza. For a boy I would choose perhaps Elliot or Erik.

Answer 10

they sound too close already but at least with Eliza and Elisa its a little difference in the sound..well nvr mind because i dont know how your friend plans on pronouncing them
