[name]Do[/name] these sound like they flow nicely as British female sisters? Im writing a story:)
[name]Beatrice[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name]
[name]Matilda[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Harriet[/name]
Middle name suggestioned would be great! But in all do they go as a sibset? Thanks!
Sorry, but I don’t think they flow. Each one is too modern-day trendy. I see you’ve chosen ‘vintage’ names so I’m assuming the story is set in the past? I think you need to mix it up with some more common names. [name]Elizabeth[/name]? [name]Mary[/name]? [name]Katherine[/name]?
[name]Matilda[/name] to me is more Australian than British. The only one I’d keep is [name]Harriet[/name].
I think they really do go!
for middle names do you like any of these?
[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Madeleine[/name]/ [name]Georgia[/name]/ [name]Luella[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name] [name]Claudia[/name]/ [name]Cecilia[/name]/ [name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Matilda[/name] [name]Briony[/name]/ [name]Camille[/name]/ [name]Juliet[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Alice[/name]/ [name]Mirabel[/name]/ [name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Harriet[/name] [name]Lucinda[/name]/ [name]Rosamund[/name]/ [name]Cressida[/name]
good luck!

Thanks i really like those middle name options!
I’d remove [name]Matilda[/name] and put in [name]Adele[/name], as it sounds very British to me. I’d change [name]Pearl[/name] to [name]Margaret[/name] and use [name]Pearl[/name] as her nickname, as [name]Margaret[/name] means “pearl.” Finally, I’d use [name]Genevieve[/name] as a middle name, as it is French and it is throwing me off. Perhaps this sibling set:
[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Laurel[/name]
[name]Margaret[/name] “[name]Pearl[/name]” [name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Adele[/name] [name]Matilda[/name]
[name]Harriet[/name] “[name]Hattie[/name]” [name]Elizabeth[/name]
[name]Victoria[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]
An alternate sibling set, for a longer last name:
[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Jane[/name]
[name]Margaret[/name] [name]Mary[/name]
[name]Adele[/name] [name]Katherine[/name]
[name]Harriet[/name] [name]Irene[/name]
[name]Victoria[/name] [name]Clare[/name]
Good luck!
I’m British, and all of the names are reasonably popular over here at the moment (not to [name]Sophie[/name] proportions, but I know at least one of each). [name]Harriet[/name] is especially popular. I would have to disagree with [name]Lemon[/name], I’m afraid, and say that [name]Matilda[/name] is much more British than [name]Adele[/name], which isn’t really British at all.
I was thinking that too, [name]Adele[/name] seemed more french to me! Such as [name]Adeline[/name]. But thanks for the reassurence:) I didnt want terribly popular names. [name]Just[/name] not unhead of names either i figured it was a good balance

Sorry to burst any bubbles, but the name [name]Adele[/name] is [name]German[/name]!
OH! Well, that’s okay. Thanks for the clarification on [name]Adele[/name] – I’ve just met many a [name]Brit[/name] named [name]Adele[/name], so it really stuck with me as a “British” sort of name…
[name]Just[/name] for fun, when I was a girl living in [name]England[/name], my friends were: [name]Clare[/name], [name]Fanny[/name], [name]Pauline[/name], [name]Lisa[/name] [name]Marion[/name], [name]Erina[/name], [name]Cara[/name], [name]Victoria[/name] “[name]Tori[/name],” [name]Hannah[/name], [name]Rebecca[/name], [name]Genevieve[/name], and [name]Madeline[/name]
([name]Abbey[/name] also feels rather British to me, but that nickname, and its longer version, [name]Abigail[/name], are rather popular in general, I suppose…)
I knew [name]Adele[/name] was [name]German[/name], as names such as [name]Alice[/name] and [name]Adeline[/name] are german but have a french feel to them was more of what i was saying, and especially more of a french feel then english. But thanks for the list of names! Im sure they will help!
I’ve always loved the name [name]Eugenie[/name]. It’s got such a British sound to it, but maybe that’s just because it’s [name]Princess[/name] [name]Eugenie[/name] of [name]York[/name]'s name.
