Hi I love the names Lila and Lia (pronounced like Leah) for two sisters, but are they too close?
Are Lila and Lia to close for sisters?

They're okay together.... I'm facing the same problem with Lily and Laelia but i've scrapped those and gone with two other names.... that may be what yo have to do too but otherwise I love both the names!

I personally like both of those names but I think they are way too close to use together as sibling names.

They're definitely too close. They basically have the same spelling minus one letter. I don't think the sounds of the names are too close though, so if you spelled them Lila and Leah it might be better.

I think it is adorable for sisters but do agree with Hannah. The spelling would be better Lila and Leah. I like unique spellings too, but in this situation it might be better to stick with the original.
