Your daughters have beautiful names! I think your best bet is to go for something old-fashioned that bridges the popularity gap between the two. While I love [name_u]Eloise[/name_u] and [name_f]Elise[/name_f], I think they’re a bit too short and too popular for sister names, but [name_f]Naomi[/name_f], [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f], and [name_f]Odette[/name_f] are perfect! I think my favorite is [name_f]Odette[/name_f].

Some notes that might help narrow down:

  1. Both of your daughters’ names have [name_m]German[/name_m] origins, which lends a large advantage to [name_f]Odette[/name_f] in my eyes, since it does too.
  2. Both of your daughters have three syllable, rhythmic names.
  3. The “l” sound is prominent in both names, and as is the “d.”

When I say [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] & [name_f]Rosalinde[/name_f] I hear a slight emphasis on the last syllable, so to go along w/these two names I’m drawn toward three-syllable names w/a slight emphasis on the last syllable. Both names also give off a “medieval-y” feeling to me. Maybe (apologies for repeats):
