Are there any voice over actors who sound similar, that it is a bit dfficult to tell apart?

I am not saying there are voice over actors who sound similar in ever type of characters, but a voice type they use. For example two voice over actresses little boy characters sound similar, but their girl characters sound the same.

I will start:

Tara Strong and Kari Wahlgren - really just their normal grownup girl or normal teenage girl voice. I was watching Sym - Bionic Titan last Friday, at first I thought and correctly thought that Princess IIana was voiced by Tara Strong. But to tell the truth, until I got it confirmed that it was Tara, I had my doubts and thought that it could have been Kari Wahlgren.

Kate Higgens and Laura Bailey - same as above, normal grownup or teenage girl voice. A lot of Kate's voices sound similar to other voice actresses.
 
I think that Scott McNeil's voicing of Blanka (from the US Street Fighter cartoon) resembles Frank Welker's Doctor Claw and Darkseid. Heck, until I looked up the credits, I thought Frank Welker did voice Blanka.
 
There was one time I mistook Rob Paulsen for Gilbert Gottfried. It was in Danny Phantom, when he did the voice of Technus. It was spot-on, and I was convinced that it was him, until checking online to see that it was Paulsen.

For awhile, I thought Dad from Dexter's Laboratory was voiced by Maurice LaMarche. I was watching one episode, and he started speaking in a deep voice that reminded me of Brain from Animaniacs.
 
I'd like to point out that while it's normal to see her last name spelled differently, it's Wahlgren, no offence or anything. Just thought I'd point that out.

Anyways, I agree. I also find it funny that I noticed this kind of topic on another fourm (about Anime called Mania), I also found a couple of posts too, by two people who are better known as Nightcrawler and Donatello (Wolverine & the X-Men and TMNT '03 respectively):



This was shortly followed up with this:



I lol'd at that. Anyways, I personally find that Johnny Yong Bosch sounds somewhat similar to Yuri Lowenthal and that Charlie Adler and John Kassir also sound similar on occasion.
 
Theyre not va's per se, but I have trouble telling Steve Buscemi, James Woods, and Dennis Leary apart. The one time I distinctly knew one from the other was Buscemi in Monster House.
 
This has happened twice (so far), but I've heard characters who sounded like Seth Rogen, only to find that it was Jeff Garlin.
