EDIT: Too similar, going with just Delphine
I really love the name Delphine, I love Daphne too but I like Delphine more, whereas my partner likes Daphne more.
A friend suggested we go with Daphne Delphine, Delphine as the middle name - but do you think the DD is too much? If it is too much, what middle name would you put with either Daphne or Delphine?
My only concern with just Delphine as the first name is that I feel like I can already see her spelling it out to a barista for a coffee order lol. Definitely not common in my country.
Other names we have are Margot, Violet, Flora, Thea - if that gives you any idea of the naming vibe.
I think itâs too hard to say and doesnât look nice tbh. Sorry!

Honestly I donât think itâs too much! I do find the two names together a little hard to pronounce, but I donât mind the alliteration.
Are you open to using two middle names? It may seem like âa lotâ but it could break up the two names â something like [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] (Surname)?
Of your names, I would suggest:
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]

These are probably too similar to be in the same name.
Iâd go for [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Freya[/name_f] and [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]

Personally I find them a little too similar but it isnt the worst combo Iâve ever come across either. I think if you both love it then use it, the MN would only be really used when wrote on forms so not something youâd or she would be shouting/saying every day anyways.
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is sweet and floral, but it does feel a bit much for me - a bit too perfume-y for me?
I do like [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] best though and tbh, I have a super common name and sometimes people still mishear it 
Some middles:
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f]

Perfumey is a great way to describe how it sounds. Itâs like I can see a celebrity in a commercial saying âDaphne [name_f]Delphine[/name_f], by chanel. Embrace the scent.â and I donât mean that as a compliment to the name lol. Itâs off the list, too rhymey same same.
[name_m]Just[/name_m] really need to decide between [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] and [name_f]Daphne[/name_f], theyâre honestly neck and neck at this point for my favourite.

itâs definitely to similar
S for middles if you chose one over th either instead of keeping them together:
I love both [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] and [name_f]Delphine[/name_f], but for some reason they are sort of tricky to find middle names for.
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Fae[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Odette[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f]
Daphné [name_f]Amélie[/name_f]
Daphné [name_f]Maxine[/name_f]
Daphné [name_f]Francine[/name_f]
Daphné [name_f]Magdalene[/name_f]
Daphné [name_f]GeneviÚve[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Jeanne[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Ălise
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] [name_f]Amélie[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] Ăve
Too similar, but [name_f]Della[/name_f] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] or [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Della[/name_f] would work.
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] 
is gorgeous! Both names sound very alike so I think if youâre the one carrying the child, growing them from a little cell to a whole baby, your partner should get on board lol. She could potentially use the nickname [name_f]Della[/name_f] when ordering coffee to avoid issues!
I personally would not use [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] as the not only share the same first letter but also they sound nearly identical.
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] for the win!!

Both names are gorgeous, but together it is a little tricky to pronounce them.
The other options on your list are beautiful, too. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f], [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] / [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] and [name_f]Flora[/name_f] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] sound wonderful.
