We have to fill out the birth certificate today and haven’t yet chosen our twin girls’ middle names!
First names are Claire and Josephine, nickname Josie.
Big sister is Lucia Pearl and brother Marcus Arun. Lucia means light in Latin and Arun means dawn in Thai (kids ethnicity). Claire means clear, bright, so I would love for Josie’s middle name to mean “light” in some way and connect all the siblings together.
If that isn’t possible, then I’d like Claire and Josie’s middle names to tie to each other. Either as both sea related or flower related.
Finally, it would be great Claire’s middle name leant itself to a cute nickname since Claire has no nickname and her twin has a cute nickname.
We have lots of requirements to hit!
We are considering:
Claire MARINA - means of the sea, Latin name, Shakespeare name, saints name
Josephine HELENA - (pronounce Hell-a-nuh) means light or sun, Latin name, Shakespeare name, saints name
Claire ROSEMARY - the plant but also means dew of the sea in Latin. Rose as nickname
Josephine LILY - pretty flower name
Claire MARGUERITE - means pearl and is the French word for daisy, saints name. Daisy could be a nickname.
Claire MARGARET - English version of above. Could use Maisie as nickname. I like Maisie and Josie
Josephine LILY - connects as a flower name?
Claire MARINA
Josephine MERIEL- means bright shining sea
Claire MARIE - like the sound of the two names together and may call her by both names
Josephine ?? need something to tie to Marie in style
Please help!
