Due with our 5th in June and names are hard. All of our kids have 4 letter names so we want to continue that. Not planning to find out the sex so want a boy and girl name
Girl name will likely be Lila Joanne (Joanne is a family name). Only hesitation is our dog is named Lola, that's not too weird is it?
Boy name options: (middle names are family names)
Jude Leland
Owen Thomas
Dean Louis
Liam James

Lila and Lola are a bit close but I don't think it's unusable. Maybe try saying Lila in front of your dog and see if she responds?
Love Jude! Second pick Owen :)

@Jcdenny21,
good call! I was only thinking of it from a human perspective. but luckily the dog does not at all respond to Lila!

My brothers name is Chase and our family dogs name was Ace so they sound similar and it was never a problem. And unfortunately dogs don’t live forever so I think if you like Lila use Lila
I like Owen and Dean from boy options.

I think a baby Lila with a puppy sister Lola is fine! Jude Leland and Dean Louis are my favs for a boy

I like Jude best from your boy list!
I'd probably do Lila Joanne instead of Lila Joanna so both names don't end with the same sound.

I like Dean and Owen the best. Lila and Lola are similar but I think that’s fine.
