TWIN GIRLS! Help with their names? Opinions/Suggestions/Thoughts are welcome! :)

Girl Names
1

My twin girls are due in [name]May[/name], and my husband and I have been making combos ever since we learned that I was preggo!
Thank goodness he’s just as enthusiastic about names as I am (he says this is the most fun part), and even takes baby name books to work with him! So funny.
We were so surpried when there were two little girls in there instead of one, but we’re so happy!

So here’s our little list that we have, I’d love input and suggestions and whatever else you all have to offer :)!

Our last name is Whitlock.

[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Millicent[/name] [name]Adela[/name] [name]Blythe[/name] and [name]Frances[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
[name]Annelie[/name] [name]Meredith[/name] [name]Wren[/name] and [name]Lucille[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] [name]Faye[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Claire[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Mae[/name]

That’s all we have so far! [name]Feel[/name] free to mix and match our combos, and suggest new names that you think would fit our style!

Fantastic combo’s. I have a [name]Violet[/name] and am thinking of going with [name]Eloise[/name] if we eventually have another little girl, so this would get my vote!! [name]Both[/name] names are old fashioned and up and comers, .i.e…getting more popular. Very very classy and sweet. Next up would be [name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name]. Sounds british and so cute. I also like [name]Felicity[/name] with [name]Violet[/name] for the twins. Not feeling the others. GL!

Out of yours I like [name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name], I love how they’re matchy but not in a way that you’d notice if you didn’t look, Old and classic/[name]Shakespeare[/name]/Short and sweet. They have the same feel to them and work together really well without sounding the same, if that makes any sense.

I like [name]Eloise[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Claire[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Mae[/name] the best, but if I could switch things around a little, I would pair [name]Violet[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Mae[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Adele[/name] [name]Wren[/name] together… You have a lot of great options!

Good luck!

[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] is beautiful! I’m not too fond of [name]Felicity[/name] though. [name]Beatrice[/name] & [name]Frances[/name] or [name]Beatrice[/name] & [name]Violet[/name] would be nice!
I think that [name]Eloise[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Claire[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Mae[/name] go together beautifully :slight_smile:

I think that [name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] & [name]Frances[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Rose[/name] would be beautiful! I think that [name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] do sound nice together though, [name]Felicity[/name] just isn’t my style.

A beautiful list!

You have some great names here!
I love [name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] but [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name] seems lacking in comparison. I think the [name]Beatrice[/name] combo would go great with [name]Lucille[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] [name]Faye[/name]. Those two seem to go perfect together.
I really like [name]Millicent[/name] [name]Adela[/name] [name]Blythe[/name] and with [name]Frances[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Rose[/name] I like the two middle names but I don’t like [name]Frances[/name]. It seems a bit masculine compared to [name]Millicent[/name].
I don’t really like the name [name]Annelie[/name] but [name]Meredith[/name] [name]Wren[/name] is very pretty.
[name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] are gorgeous together but There’s something and about the name [name]Claire[/name] I really don’t like. The other middle names are great though.
Here are some other suggestions:
[name]Ophelia[/name] & [name]Beatrice[/name]
[name]Alice[/name] & [name]Blythe[/name]
[name]Violet[/name] & [name]Cordelia[/name]
[name]Maeve[/name] & [name]Viola[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] & [name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Maude[/name] & [name]Lucille[/name]
[name]Primrose[/name] & [name]Matilda[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] & [name]Millicent[/name]

[name]Hope[/name] this helps :slight_smile:

Oh wow exciting! A namers dream, twin girls! And you’re using two middles, and your hubby is a name lover too - this is so fun! :smiley:

As far as first names, I think all your pairings match except [name]Annelie[/name] and [name]Lucille[/name]. On one hand there’s the fact that [name]Lucille[/name] feels very vintage and [name]Annelie[/name] very modern ([name]Annelie[/name] was a huge love of ours for a while), but there’s also the fact that they have overlapping sounds, I find they run into each other a bit when I say them together.

[name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Violet[/name], [name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name], and [name]Millicent[/name] and [name]Frances[/name] are gorgeous though.

Personally, my favourite pairings are:

[name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] - both super elegant, sophisticated and feminine
[name]Millicent[/name] and [name]Lucille[/name] - [name]Millie[/name] and [name]Lucy[/name]? I like the repeating double l’s but they have distinct sounds
[name]Violet[/name] and [name]Frances[/name] - sweet, simple and vintage - [name]Lettie[/name] and [name]Franny[/name] are too cute!
[name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Millicent[/name] - a little buttoned up and quirky, I like [name]Bea[/name] and [name]Millie[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Francesca[/name] - not sure if you’d consider [name]Francesca[/name] but I think it works better with [name]Eloise[/name] than [name]Frances[/name]
[name]Annelie[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] - matchy endings, but the sounds are distinct so I think it’s ok
[name]Violet[/name] and [name]Beatrice[/name] - [name]Vi[/name] and [name]Bea[/name]?
[name]Anneliese[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name]
[name]Anneliese[/name] and [name]Millicent[/name] - [name]Annie[/name] and [name]Millie[/name]?

My top 3 would be: [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name], [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Frances[/name], [name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Millicent[/name] and one extra - [name]Francesca[/name] and [name]Eloise[/name] (if you’d consider [name]Francesca[/name]).

I love almost all of your middles, how about:

[name]Eloise[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] [name]Claire[/name]
[name]Violet[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Wren[/name] and [name]Frances[/name] [name]Adela[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Mae[/name] and [name]Millicent[/name] [name]Adela[/name] [name]Blythe[/name] (reversed initials!)
[name]Eloise[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Faye[/name] and [name]Francesca[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name]

[name]Hope[/name] that helps, I could go on and on with combos as your names are fab! :slight_smile:

I’d love to see twins named [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name]. The names are both classic and sophisticated, but quirky and modern as well. I’ve thought of [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] as twins/sisters before, and I think they’re a great match.
My favorite combo as is is [name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] because I love both names, but I prefer [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] because they don’t have the repeating “iss” sound ([name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] could end up Triss and Fliss, which I don’t care for.)
I don’t care for [name]Violet[/name] because it sounds too much like “Violent” to me, and its harsh sounds are quite grating to me, especially with the soft, upbeat, and lovely [name]Eloise[/name].

Any pair of these would be GORGEOUS! You have lovely taste!
[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name]
[name]Frances[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
[name]Millicent[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Blythe[/name]
[name]Violet[/name] [name]Lucille[/name] [name]Faye[/name]

[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name] is my favorite of your combos.

12

Congrats on twin girls!! Also congrats on having a daddy so eager to help with naming!! Here are my choices…

[name]Felicity[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name] (favorite) and [name]Violet[/name] [name]Annabell[/name] [name]Mae[/name]

I also like [name]Annelie[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Rose[/name] combination with [name]Lucille[/name] [name]Adela[/name] [name]Grace[/name] combo.

Good luck!!!

I actually really like [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Mae[/name] together! Such beautiful choices and lucky you for having a husband who is very excited to help pick names! My husband is NO HELP whatsoever and I only have to name 1 little girl! LOL :slight_smile:

14

Wow, thank you everyone :)!

My hubby is a lit professor, so he loves the combo of [name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name]. But with the suggestion of Coredlia, also from [name]Shakespeare[/name], we both really like the combo [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Cordelia[/name] [name]Grace[/name]! But maybe [name]Cordelia[/name] and [name]Ophelia[/name] are too matchy?
I also love the suggestion of [name]Genevieve[/name] :)! I’ll have to make a combo for that!
I love the way you guys are mixing and matching!!

15

We’ve decided to switch our [name]Frances[/name] for [name]Florence[/name] :)!
So now the combo would be [name]Florence[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Rose[/name], we think it sounds much better with [name]Millicent[/name] or with our other names!

16

Lots of nice names!
Your DH sounds wonderful- mine like to veto but not suggest.

[name]Lucille[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Rose[/name] and [name]Millicent[/name] [name]Violet[/name] [name]Mae[/name] ([name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Millie[/name])

17

I like so many of those names but I have a ridiculous amount of love for [name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Meredith[/name] as a sibset and would love to see a combo of some kind with those names so I propose:

[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] & [name]Meredith[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Wren[/name]

Unfortunately and no offense but when I hear [name]Annelie[/name] I think of anally :confused:

18

[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Grace[/name]
[name]Millicent[/name] [name]Adela[/name] [name]Blythe[/name] and [name]Frances[/name] [name]Camilla[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
[name]Annelie[/name] [name]Meredith[/name] [name]Wren[/name] and [name]Lucille[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] [name]Faye[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name] [name]Matilda[/name] [name]Claire[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] [name]Annabelle[/name] [name]Mae[/name]

I like the [name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Eloise[/name] combos together, as well as the [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name]. Over all my favorite combos are the [name]Beatrice[/name] and [name]Felicity[/name] combos, so while I don’t think those two first names go together as well as the other ones I mentioned, I think they are both fantastic combos and would work out reguardless!

Thanks everyone, keep leaving thoughts and suggestions :)!

[name]Beatrice[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Jane[/name] and [name]Millicent[/name] [name]Adela[/name] [name]Blythe[/name] would be my pick, without doubt.
I might change [name]Jane[/name] to [name]Wren[/name] to get nature names for both and because I think [name]Wren[/name] is cuter than [name]Jane[/name] and a better match with [name]Blythe[/name].
Also love the subtle repetition of the soft -c sound in the final syllable of both first names. ^^

Mixing from all the names freely, I would land on [name]Adela[/name] [name]Wren[/name] [name]Beatrice[/name] nn [name]Ada[/name] and [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Frances[/name] [name]Blythe[/name] nn [name]Lia[/name].
