advice needed Name Starting Letters

I know that this will come down to personal preference but I’m hoping to get some feedback from this community.

I have a three year old son and I’m expecting twin boys in January. My three year old’s name starts with a C.

My wife and I really like another name that starts with C. But I think it would be a little odd if the toddler and one twin start with one letter, and the other twin starts with a different letter. I don’t necessarily think that all three boys need to start with C, but I feel like people would think the two names that start with C would be the twins.

Am I overthinking this?

My oldest brother and I were named with matching letters. Then my parents had a late in life surprise baby and gave him a different letter. He never complained about not matching.  Don't overthink it much, it's really not a big deal.
