I *love* the name Phoebe, but I voted for Natasha. I like it a lot too, plus I think it sounds better with Zoey and Ava. I think I feel that way b/c it has three syllables (so then you'd have a 1-syllable, a 2-syllable and a 3-syllable name). But Phoebe would also be a winner. Enjoy!

I'm not sure how the PP is pronouncing your DDs names, but it looks like they both have two syllables to me.

Phoebe got my vote. With big sisters Zoey and Ava, I think Naomi sounds too traditional and solemn. I've never warmed up to Natasha (to me she's still chasing "moose and squirrel" with Boris), but I especially don't like it with Ava and Zoey. Feels too exotic, I think.

Phoebe is lovely and makes a great match.

That's *funny*. At first I thought you were saying Natasha had two syllables so I was trying to squash it down (Nat-sha was the best I could come up with), when I looked at the original names again. LOL! I must've been reading Zoey as "Zoe" (pr. Zo, long "o"). SO with a Zoe and an Ava, I thought Natasha sounded loverly. But I do love Phoebe and know that I know they'd all be 2 syllable names, I like it all the more.

I know some people pronounce them differently, but Zoe and Zoey are pronounced the same way, 2 syllables.


ZO-ee
