[name]Do[/name] you think that [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Gianna[/name] are too matchy for identical twins? I really don’t want their names to sound too similar, but my husband and I like both these names and he is trying to convince me that they are different enough…
[name]Gemma[/name] [name]Rose[/name] and [name]Gianna[/name] [name]Mae[/name]
I dont know… thoughts?
Sorry, but I do think that they are too close. I really think that with twins, especially identical twins, you should try to avoid the same initial in the first place. But [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Gianna[/name] kind of go beyond even that, they even sound close to the same. Your girls are going to share almost everything else in their lives, including their looks. They each deserve a name that is truly their own.
A bit matchy. They share a first letter, sound alike, and even look alike. I would be worried that this could become a trendy twin combo as [name]Gianna[/name] is so hot, [name]Gemma[/name] is gaining popularity, and they are such obvious sisters.
ok, you’re right! I like [name]Gemma[/name] better, so I’ll keep searching for her sister’s name…
[name]Ah[/name], yes. As an identical twin, I must say yes. It’s a good thing they don’t rhyme - thank the [name]Lord[/name]! - but I do think they are a bit match-y. So, you like [name]Gemma[/name] better, then? Let’s see about a perfect name for her sister!
[name]Aria[/name] (Italian, “a melody”)
[name]Calla[/name] (Greek, “beautiful”)
[name]Chiara[/name] (Italian, “clear”) - [kee-AHR-a]
[name]Flora[/name] (Latin, “flower”)
[name]Leila[/name] (Persian, “dark beauty, night”)
[name]Lia[/name] (Italian, “weary”) - [[name]LEE[/name]-uh]
[name]Livia[/name] (Latin, “crown”)
[name]Luna[/name] (Italian, “moon”)
[name]Phoebe[/name] (Greek, “radiant, shining one”)
[name]Simone[/name] (French, “the listener”)
[name]Gemma[/name] is Italian and means “precious stone,” so I included the nationalities and meanings of the other names on this list. Hopefully something catches your eye! I’ve marked my favorite combinations below:
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Chiara[/name] - [name]Both[/name] names aren’t overwhelmingly popular, yet they have a sophisticated, modern sound. They have pleasant meanings and sound amazing together.
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Livia[/name] - The two meanings (“precious stone” and “crown”) just seem to go together so well, right? [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Livia[/name] are great alternatives to the very popular [name]Emma[/name] and [name]Olivia[/name], and you get cute nicknames like [name]Gem[/name] and [name]Liv[/name] to work with!
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Calla[/name] - These names have a lot of symmetry, and I like that both have a repeated letter (m and l). It’s just a neat touch! Plus, could you get better meanings for your little girls? You have good nickname potential with these two, and they are unique enough to be interesting without being unfamiliar. They are sweet and feminine and elegant.
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Simone[/name] - There is something very romantic and sophisticated about [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Simone[/name], I think. [name]Simone[/name] grounds [name]Gemma[/name]'s spunky image while [name]Gemma[/name] gives [name]Simone[/name] a bit of new life. The pairing is unexpected and elegant.
Okay, good luck!

I love [name]Gemma[/name]! But I think you should think less Italian, and more English. [name]Even[/name] though [name]Gemma[/name] is originally Italian, I find that it has such a British flair that another British name would go better with it. Try these:
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Clara[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Tabitha[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Victoria[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Scarlett[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Violet[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Isla[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Fiona[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Daphne[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Vivienne[/name]
[name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Coralie[/name]
too close. I do like [name]Gemma[/name] better. Unless [name]MAe[/name] and [name]Rose[/name] have super meaning to you i would avoid them as hey are filler middle names. what about [name]Rose[/name] as a first name. [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Rose[/name]?
Yes I do think they’re way too similar!!
What about [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Imogen[/name]?
They have a common “g” and “m” that ties them together without starting with the same letter and they’re both names that are very popular here in the UK.
[name]Gemma[/name] means precious stone and [name]Imogen[/name] means beloved child. [name]Both[/name] lovely meanings! And you have the nn’s [name]Gem[/name] and [name]Immy[/name]/Ims.
[name]Gemma[/name] [name]Rose[/name] and [name]Imogen[/name] [name]Mae[/name] would be so beautiful!
Best of luck and congrats
Oh good! I like [name]Gemma[/name] much better, too! I agree that [name]Gemma[/name] has a British flair and like a lot of the suggestions so far!
Though I like the names I already suggested with [name]Gemma[/name], especially if you have a more Italian last name, I definitely think you could do something a bit more British or vintage, such as:
[name]Gemma[/name] and …
[name]Alice[/name]
[name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Felicity[/name]
[name]Iris[/name]
[name]Lucy[/name]
[name]Margo[/name]
[name]Sylvie[/name]
[name]Violet[/name]
[name]Lemon[/name]
I second [name]Lemon[/name]'s suggestion of [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Livia[/name]!
I think we might agree… [name]Livia[/name] and [name]Gemma[/name] is beautiful!
Although I think I might name her [name]Olivia[/name] and just call her [name]Livia[/name] or [name]Liv[/name]. I like the idea of a full name and a nickname.
[name]Liv[/name] and [name]Gem[/name]. Cute???
I second [name]Lemon[/name]'s suggestion of [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Chiara[/name]! That has long been my favorite Italian sister name set! Absolutely beyond perfect for twins!
Yes
Oh, I’m glad you like [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Livia[/name]! [name]Livia[/name] is a full name, so I don’t think you need to use [name]Olivia[/name] unless you absolutely love [name]Olivia[/name] so much more than [name]Livia[/name] - [name]Olivia[/name] is very popular, too. I just like the way that [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Livia[/name] rolls off the tongue, better than [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Olivia[/name] in my opinion but both are nice…
[name]Gem[/name] and [name]Liv[/name]? Definitely cute!
PS I also think [name]Gemma[/name] and [name]Chiara[/name] is cute. [name]Lyndsay[/name], glad you like, too!
