Do John and Anne sound too similar to be sibling-names? (Both one syllable and with the terminal "n" sound?) They are my favorites for a boy and girl, but I'm afraid they sound too much alike. I'd probably call the boy "Jack" or Johnny and the girl just plain "Anne." What do you guys think? Anne is a dead set, so if John is out I have to think of a new name!

I don't think they're too similar at all! Sure, they're one syllable and end in n, but it's not as if they rhyme or anything. Anne and Dan might be a bit much, but not Anne and John.
