I think [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and [name_f]Gwen[/name_f]/[name_f]Gwendolen[/name_f] go great together and make a stylish, vintage sibset. I’d stay away from [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] but [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] is safe.

I think it’s fine! [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and [name_f]Gwen[/name_f]/[name_f]Gwendolen[/name_f] make a dashing set, in my opinion.

This is a difficult one. I generally stay away from couple names (or at least we’ll known or family ones) and [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] definitely didn’t end well. But [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] are great names (and [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] and [name_f]Gwendolen[/name_f] aren’t [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f]), so it’d be a shame not to use both. I’d say go for it, although personally I wouldn’t as I and some of my friends are interested in the legends and they’d most likely comment on the connection.

This is what I was going to say as well.

They sound fine to me, but I have no idea what the connection is supposed to be so I’d listen to the other berries if I were you!

I agree with @moonstone - [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] & [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] is fine, but [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] would be too much [name_f]IMO[/name_f].

Thanks for all the replies! I’m glad to see most people think it can work. I didn’t think people would, so that’s very encouraging.

Please keep replies and votes coming!
