Sign, Prophacy, Or Coincidence

I'll start by tell as story about myself. A few years back I was so overwhelmed with not having a girl in my life, that I had an imaginary wife. I named her Rebecca. I found out shortly after that the name means loyal, and faithful wife (in Hebrew). I love the name so much, that after growing out of that fantasy I had made up, I have secretly been asking for the girl I'm going to marry someday to be named Rebecca. I told God she did not have to be named that obviously, but I would like her to be. So anyhow, there's a girl I met in math class named, coincidentally, Rebecca. Her and I go to the same church from time to time, but are no more than acquaintances. I wondered if this is the one but have been hesitant to try and go any further, because I did not want to get my hopes up just to be disappointed. Some time has passed and still I have not done much past saying hi, and making occasional small talk with her, but today in class, the teacher read a problem that had my name and her name in it. At first I thought the teacher was talking to both of us, until I read the problem in the book. I was amused by this at first but got to thinking what if. I wondered if it was just a coincidence. I wondered if it was a sign from God saying she's the one, or if he was saying your wife's name will be Rebecca, but not that Rebecca. I wondered if it was the Devil trying to play mind games with me. I asked God for clarification, and the answer I felt was, "she's the one." However I did not trust what I heard, was it me telling myself what I wanted to hear, was it God giving me the green light, or was it Satan messing with me. Maybe it was just a freak accident that just happened in the right place and time. I have no clue. I don't if I should take the risk and look like a fool or if I should, I should just ignore it. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions? What would you do? Or am I just overthinking this because of my hopes that there's a very small chance it could be?
 
Perhaps, just get to Know her?
or Talk to her gently!
