Guilty pleasure sibsets

Any guilty pleasure sibsets?

[name_m]Archer[/name_m], [name_u]River[/name_u] & [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u] (Not international enough for me to actually use.)
[name_m]Birch[/name_m] & [name_m]Calix[/name_m] (As above.)
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f] & [name_f]Jezebel[/name_f] ([name_f]Delilah[/name_f] is a fad name and both might be offensive.)
[name_f]Luna[/name_f] & [name_u]Halcyon[/name_u] ([name_u]Halcyon[/name_u] is too out there.)
[name_u]Sailor[/name_u] & [name_u]Scout[/name_u] (Fad names.)
[name_m]Cohen[/name_m] & [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] (Might be offensive.)

Good thread topic:

[name_m]Zephaniah[/name_m] [name_u]Cade[/name_u] ( boy ) & Malachite [name_m]Amadeus[/name_m] ( boy )

Girls I have no idea…maybe something like [name_u]Finley[/name_u] nickname [name_u]Flynn[/name_u] for her first name, which is more like a middle name if I were to be realistic, but these Are gps.

maybe [name_u]Finley[/name_u] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f], and if she really hated [name_u]Finn[/name_u], [name_u]Finley[/name_u], [name_u]Flynn[/name_u], or Ley/ [name_u]Lee[/name_u], at least she could rely on [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] for nicknames… [name_u]Finley[/name_u] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] and [name_u]Gemini[/name_u] [name_u]Laurence[/name_u]! or [name_u]Laurence[/name_u] nn wren could be first.

[name_m]Luke[/name_m] and [name_f]Leia[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_f]Flora[/name_f], and [name_f]Aurora[/name_f]
[name_m]Winston[/name_m] and [name_f]Julia[/name_f]
[name_f]Luna[/name_f], [name_f]Nova[/name_f], and [name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f] and [name_f]Lilith[/name_f]
[name_f]Mercy[/name_f] and [name_f]Charity[/name_f]

I have a bunch…

[name_m]Prospero[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]Valentino[/name_m] and [name_m]Fitzwilliam[/name_m] [name_m]Luciano[/name_m] Petrarch
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] Romanov [name_m]Apollo[/name_m] and [name_f]Portia[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_u]Artemis[/name_u]

[name_f]Erin[/name_f], [name_f]Caledonia[/name_f], [name_f]Cambria[/name_f], and [name_m]Albion[/name_m]
[name_m]Tudor[/name_m], [name_m]Lancaster[/name_m], [name_u]Windsor[/name_u], Plantagenet, [name_m]Stuart[/name_m]
Linate, Malpensa, and Fiumicino (they’re all names of airports)
[name_u]Roma[/name_u], [name_f]Venezia[/name_f], Firenze, [name_f]Milano[/name_f], Torino, Genova, [name_f]Verona[/name_f], Napoli

Ugh, yes. [name_f]Lily[/name_f] and [name_u]James[/name_u] are two of my favorite names, but of course the [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] connection could never make them a thing.

Also have a thing for the name Sophina /Sophena, which is totally GP

[name_f]Jubilee[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f] and [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]— A biblical sibset that I’m crazy about.
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_u]Everly[/name_u] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] and [name_m]Abram[/name_m] [name_m]Ryker[/name_m] [name_u]Sage[/name_u]-- If only my boyfriend would just give in to [name_f]Gemma[/name_f]… and both [name_m]Abram[/name_m] and [name_m]Ryker[/name_m] are variations of names on both side of my family, [name_m]Abraham[/name_m] and [name_m]Richard[/name_m].

[name_m]Rome[/name_m] [name_m]Evander[/name_m] [name_m]Liam[/name_m] and [name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] [name_f]Snow[/name_f]-- if I were a celebrity and could get away with it.

@marshmallow- Well, [name_m]Rome[/name_m] [name_m]Evander[/name_m] [name_m]Liam[/name_m] and [name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] [name_f]Snow[/name_f] are both usable, just not together! (I’m guessing because of the [name_m]Rome[/name_m]/[name_u]Milan[/name_u] thing?)

[name_m]Romulus[/name_m] and [name_m]Remus[/name_m] as middle names for twins.

@bonfireazalea Yes that is a small part of the reason, and no. It’s mainly because my boyfriend can’t stand the names [name_m]Rome[/name_m], [name_f]Alouette[/name_f] or [name_f]Snow[/name_f]. [name_f]Mila[/name_f] and [name_m]Evander[/name_m] and [name_m]Liam[/name_m] are usable to us, but those names altogether are my guilty pleasures because I’ll always have to love those combos silently and wish I had a chance to use them! Another one I just thought of seeing [name_m]Romulus[/name_m] and [name_m]Remus[/name_m] is [name_m]Atlas[/name_m]. I saw a [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] on a birth announcement and I fell in love. Again, it’s another the boyfriend has vetoed. sigh.

[name_m]Romulus[/name_m] and [name_m]Remus[/name_m]

[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] and [name_f]Cleopatra[/name_f]/[name_m]Helios[/name_m] and [name_f]Selene[/name_f]
[name_m]Leander[/name_m] and [name_u]Hero[/name_u]
[name_m]Louis[/name_m] and [name_f]Antoinette[/name_f]
[name_m]Orpheus[/name_m] and [name_f]Eurydice[/name_f]
[name_m]Osiris[/name_m] and [name_f]Isis[/name_f]

[name_f]Odile[/name_f] and [name_f]Odette[/name_f]
[name_f]Olga[/name_f] and [name_f]Tatiana[/name_f]
Rhaenys and Visenya

And people would think that you are a really big [name_u]River[/name_u] [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u] fan :smiley:

Used my favorite gp name of all-time on our daughter: Wellsley That was over 24 years ago. I highly favor using them!

Here are my top sibsets of late.

[name_f]Saskia[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] [name_u]Clare[/name_u]
[name_m]Warren[/name_m] Gainer Buchan

[name_f]My[/name_f] great grandmother was [name_f]Ann[/name_f] [name_u]Maria[/name_u], this spelling, but pronounced [name_f]Mariah[/name_f] and always used in double name form. She had 13 children and no one has used her name in full. I’d love to use it but I think I’d have to spell the mn [name_f]Mariah[/name_f] to stop the mispronunciations, then overall it doesn’t seem as special…

Some of mine aren’t super obscure but are just names I don’t think I could pull off without any trace of their heritage or else names that I don’t think work with my husband’s surname:

The first I thought of was [name_f]Ismene[/name_f] and [name_f]Amadea[/name_f]!
[name_f]Araminta[/name_f] and [name_f]Pomeline[/name_f]
[name_f]Amina[/name_f] and [name_f]Emerald[/name_f]

Sibsets and why I wouldn’t use them:

[name_f]Emma[/name_f] & [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (too popular imo)
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] (I don’t love [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] by itself)
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f] & [name_f]Layla[/name_f] (too cutesy
[name_f]Lily[/name_f] & [name_f]Clara[/name_f] (too popular again)
Raffey & [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] (don’t actually have anything against this one)
[name_f]Adalie[/name_f] & [name_f]Isadora[/name_f] (completely different styles)
[name_u]Doon[/name_u] & [name_f]Maud[/name_f] (too matchy)
