Help! Expecting twins?

General Name Discussion
1

DH and I are expecting twins (excited but terrified :eek: ) so we’ve been playing about with names. I want them to be individual, strong and unusual but also classic and beautiful. Genders as yet unknown, but for possible DSs we [name_u]LOVE[/name_u]:

[name_u]Zephyr[/name_u] [name_u]Francis[/name_u]
[name_m]Titus[/name_m] [name_m]Henry[/name_m] - (A bit apprehensive because of Shakespearean connotations, but we know a [name_m]Titus[/name_m] and all he ever seems to get is compliments!)
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m] [name_m]Edward[/name_m]

And for possible DDs:

[name_f]Zinnia[/name_f] [name_f]Marielle[/name_f]
[name_f]Starling[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] - ([name_f]Starling[/name_f] is a link to DH’s grandfather, but I love it in it’s own right too)

Anybody have any suggestions along these lines? Are these names too out there?

I really dislike the Zephyr and Zinnia – to me, they sound like they came from another planet, no offense. For me personally, they are too out there. I prefer Zara over Zinnia.

Titus Henry is fine, but I prefer Henry as a first name and it’s one of my favorites. :slight_smile:
Caspian Edward is really adorable! Edward is classic and there is something whimsical about Caspian that I enjoy.
Starling Amelia is really pretty! Starling is just unusual enough, but not strange or out there. To me, it’s of a similar vein with Starla and Stella.

I like the sibset of Caspian Edward and Starling Amelia! Adorable!

Other suggestions:
Stellan Henry or Stellan Edward
Zara Marcelle or Zara Gisele
Starla Grace or Starla Delphine
Sasha Delphine or Sasha Gisele
