Oh I love [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] with [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], too bad your DH is not on the same page. I would like to second some of the suggestions already made:
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] (this name always reminds me of [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] and vice verse maybe your DH would like this too?)
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Cecile[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] (too popular?)
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Philippa[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Camille[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Valerie[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Victoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] & [name_f]Clementine[/name_f]
The baby will be here any day now. So far we like:
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
[name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
You have so many great options, and I’m a little late to the party, but my favorite so far with [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] is [name_f]Florence[/name_f], and I liked the [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], and [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] suggested by previous commenters. Other ideas:
[name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]: Like [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], a feminine, charmingly quirky, and unexacting vintage revival. Lively and spunky, but also professional.
[name_f]Theodora[/name_f]: This name has a refined charm to it that always reminds me of [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. I like the shared “t” sound, and that both names seem to fit the same style while remaining distinct. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] make great sisters! [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f]: Another classic, distinctive name, and one that I think makes a perfect middle between your style and your husband’s. It has the flow and “-lia” of [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], but is a less popular than some of your choices, although it is easily recognized and pronounced. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] make quite the impression as sisters!
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f]/[name_f]Delphine[/name_f]: I like it for similar reasons to [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f]. It gives you the ending of [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], but is rarer and quirkier, just like [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_f]Daphne[/name_f]; [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_f]Delphine[/name_f]. I think it’s striking!
[name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]: Subtly virtue, like [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], has the “-line” of [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], many of the lovely sounds of [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] and [name_f]Estelle[/name_f] are present, and a unique vintage choice. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]. They are nicely cohesive in terms of sound, but also very distinct from one another.
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]: A sound similar to [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], with all the formality and regality of [name_f]Judith[/name_f]. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] are distinctive as sisters, yet well-matched.
[name_f]Vera[/name_f]: I like [name_f]Vera[/name_f] because it combines strong syllables, style, and substance. It is also every bit as posh and vintage as [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], and both have a subtle quirkiness. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_f]Vera[/name_f] seem like perfect sisters to me.
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f]: I noticed that many of the names you like have the “y” sound, as well as an “l”. ([name_f]FLorence[/name_f], [name_f]FeLicity[/name_f], etc.) [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] is an exquisite vintage choice on par with [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] and [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] as sisters seem very compatible.
Best of luck, and I hope this helped! Apologies for the length of the post!
