What names go with Dana and Jean?

What names do you think go with sisters [name_u]Dana[/name_u] and [name_u]Jean[/name_u]? We love the name [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] with a nickname [name_f]Milly[/name_f], but it feels too long and too popular with the other two. We were thinking maybe another 4 letter name or a longer name with less syllables.

Other names we considered:
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] (Above)
[name_f]Ella[/name_f]/[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] (Too popular)
[name_f]Kate[/name_f] ([name_m]Don[/name_m]'t love any full forms except [name_f]Kathleen[/name_f], which rhymes with [name_u]Jean[/name_u])
[name_f]Ann[/name_f] (Same N sound as [name_u]Jean[/name_u])
[name_f]Lois[/name_f] (Our backup if we don’t find anything)
[name_f]Elise[/name_f] (Maybe, but not 100% on board, what do you think of this one?)

I like [name_f]Elise[/name_f] and [name_f]Lois[/name_f] :slight_smile: I also think [name_f]Kate[/name_f] could work by itself, if you’re open to that.

[name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] ‘[name_f]Milly[/name_f]’
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] ‘[name_f]Milly[/name_f]’
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f] ‘[name_f]Milly[/name_f]’
[name_f]Lola[/name_f]
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f]

I like [name_f]Elise[/name_f] out of you list!
My suggestions:
[name_u]Clare[/name_u]
[name_f]Maggie[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]/[name_f]Liza[/name_f]
[name_f]Molly[/name_f]
[name_u]Nelly[/name_u]/[name_f]Nell[/name_f]
[name_u]Ellis[/name_u]
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f] nn [name_f]Tilly[/name_f]
[name_f]Helen[/name_f]
[name_f]Mara[/name_f]
[name_f]Gail[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f]

I like [name_f]Elise[/name_f]. Also think [name_f]Kate[/name_f] works on its own without a long form.

[name_f]Bess[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothy[/name_f]
[name_f]Faye[/name_f]
[name_f]Helen[/name_f]
[name_f]Louise[/name_f]
[name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_u]Marian[/name_u]
[name_f]Nell[/name_f]
[name_f]Ruth[/name_f]
[name_f]Sybil[/name_f]
[name_f]Tess[/name_f]

I like above suggestions of [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]/[name_f]Liza[/name_f], [name_f]Sybil[/name_f], and [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] (nn [name_f]Ruthie[/name_f] is cute).

More ideas:

[name_f]Louise[/name_f]
[name_u]Abby[/name_u]
[name_u]Brit[/name_u]

Good luck!
