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'd love to know just how many of thousands of men named John over the years have had a sister named Anne, and vice versa. If not Anne, Mary, and if not John, William. They are definitely the most solid and most traditional names out there.

Yeah, I think they are fine together.
