Any suggestions for a sister for Jennifer?

Im really struggling to think of a name for dd2. I'd like something similar to dd1, Jennifer, which I liked because it was quite traditional, but not too common at the moment, and goes with Scottish surname.

Appreciate any ideas, as we can't think of any names and time is running out!

I prefer Marianne to Marian, but Annabel to Annabelle.

Was that a list of girls that he'd ?ahem .... there was something about a pencil case .. [brain hurts]

Jennifer, Alison, Phillippa Sue...Deborah, Annabelle too....

Ruth! I'm a Jennifer and that's my middle name, I think they go well. My maiden name was a Scottish one too.

cece · 13/10/2012 22:15

Jane

Ohmydarlin · 13/10/2012 08:24

Susannah has a similar feel to Jennifer - both classic but underused. Plus I love the nicknames Susie or Annie.

Ohsiena · 12/10/2012 22:05

I like:
Jennifer and Fiona
Jennifer and Caroline
Jennifer and Josephine

They all fit the traditional yet currently underused criteria.

I think Caroline is my favourite, I love this name.

Maybe not quite your criteria, but could I also suggest:
Jennifer and Claudia?

I just love Claudia.

DebbieTitsMcGee · 12/10/2012 20:49

Me & my sister are Jennifer and Alison! Other sister is Joanna.
