Too close for siblings?

My fiance and I have been talking about names here and there as of late. He really likes Logan for a boy. I've agreed that we can use it. For a girl, my first pick is Kira. He likes Kira, but not as much as I do, so I'm sure we'll be looking at other possibilities just in case there is something out there that we both like almost equally. I really like Rowan for a girl, but I'm worried that Logan and Rowan are way too close for siblings. WDYT?

Rowan has always been, and always will be, masculine to me. I much prefer Kira.

Thanks, everyone

Okay, so everyone seems to agree that Logan and Rowan are indeed too close. Good point about Lowan and Rogan too. LOL. I might use Rowan as a middle name, but Logan and Rowan seems like it would be a recipe for confusion.

Yes, Logan and Rowan are way too close for siblings. Kira is a lot better anyway. :)

Too close. And I don't like either name.

Yup, too close. They would be really hard to tell apart when you're calling one. Plus, if it was me, I'd totally mess them up, saying Lowan and Rogan. It's hard enough to keep kids' names straight when they are very different. :)

Not that you were asking, but I love Rowan, and don't mind Logan and Kira at all.

Yes. You'll end up saying "Lowan and Rogan" each time you call them.

From a distance or with background noise, Rowan and Logan would be hard to distinguish.

I don't like either name at all anyway. Kira is much better.

I think they're too close, both being two syllables, with the second syllable being the same and the stress on the first syllable in both names.
