Sloane or Cecilia?

Having boy/girl twins and the boy name will most likely be [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. Top girl picks are [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] or [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]/[name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] (nickname [name_f]Cece[/name_f]). Middle name will be [name_f]Jane[/name_f]. Can’t decide but open to other names that go with [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. Thanks for your help!!:slight_smile:

[name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]! [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] sounds beautiful and classic!

[name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] sound beautiful together! I love [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] by itself, but paired with [name_f]Jane[/name_f] it sounds a little bit awkward in my opinion.

Really like both but [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] sounds better by far.

[name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] is a bit too similar for a sibset in my opinion. I absolutely adore [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_f]Cece[/name_f] and [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is a great name :slight_smile:

I prefer [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f].

Thanks so much for all the great feedback so far!!

Definitely, [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f]! It’s so beautiful and feminine. [name_u]Sloan[/name_u] is nms.

I’ll go in the opposite direction. I much prefer [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] over [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f]. I feel like [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] is oddly popular - something that’s on everyone’s list. It’s pretty but kind of bland in my opinion. [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] is one of my guilty pleasures, and I think you should go for it! [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] could work if your last name is two or more syllables.

I love the idea of [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] and [name_u]Owen[/name_u], actually. I think it’s lovely. I just think [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is a bit sticky off the tongue…

I love [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]!

Definitely [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]. It’s dreamy and flows a lot better than [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] (which is too short imo).

[name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] is beautiful

This times a million! [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] is perfect, and [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is absolutely gorgeous! So feminine and timeless and strong. All the Cecilias I’ve known have been lovely. I love the nns Ceci and [name_f]Cissy[/name_f], too.

The unisex [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] has never been my thing, and I even more can’t get into it because it reminds me of the baddie on Alias–[name_u]Sloan[/name_u] [name_m]Arvin[/name_m].

[name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] is a better choice and [name_f]CeCe[/name_f] is a nice nickname, will be so cute with [name_u]Owen[/name_u]

If the middle has to be [name_f]Jane[/name_f], I’d go with [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] (which is gorgeous). I also like [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] a ton and think it’s more unique, but it doesn’t go with [name_f]Jane[/name_f].

[name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]. Never understood the appeal of [name_u]Sloane[/name_u].

[name_u]Sloane[/name_u] and [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] are both excellent names! [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] is delicate and beautiful while [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] is strong and powerful, and I love both. However, [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] sounds much nicer than [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]. If you’d consider a slight alteration to the middle name though (and if it doesn’t bother you that [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] and [name_u]Owen[/name_u] are, as others have pointed out, a bit matchy), I’d suggest something like [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] [name_f]Janette[/name_f], [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] [name_f]Janine[/name_f], or [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] [name_f]Janelle[/name_f]. If, however, you are dead set on just plain [name_f]Jane[/name_f], then I think [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] is the superior choice.

I agree with the others- I love [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] by itself, but [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] sounds awkward. [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] sounds better.
Side note, the first random thing that popped into my head when I heard [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_u]Sloane[/name_u] was [name_u]Owen[/name_u] [name_m]Hunt[/name_m] and [name_m]Mark[/name_m] [name_u]Sloan[/name_u] from [name_u]Grey[/name_u]'s Anatomy. I’m sure it’s just a me thing but I thought I would just put that out there.

[name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]/[name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is beyond beautiful and it complements [name_u]Owen[/name_u] wonderfully.
