Frederick and Florence?

DS is Frederick (Freddie). Would have been Florence if he had been a girl. Am not pg, but I still love the name Florence. Would you immediately think of Tesco clothing if you heard of siblings Freddie and Florence (prob called Flossie when little)? And, if so, does it matter? Any suggestions of what else works well with Freddie? I also like Rosalie, but it's a bit close to Fred and Rose, which isn't great, and Josephine.
Just canvassing opinion of a Friday evening!

I do know it's Tesco but it wouldn't bother me and I hope I'd not point it out. You'd usually use then eldest to youngest wouldn't you?

That's good that ppl didn't realise that was the Tesco clothing line. Go with Frederick dickie - I love it (although I am a little biased)!

I'm expecting second baby and I have a Florence. Frederick is very tempting to me if it's a boy. I'm in the US though so I don't think it would matter too much. I think they go well together. Girls names I like are currently Clara, Lilly, Luna, Poppy and Willa

Florence just reminds me of my dnan. (But she was known as kitty by most ppl). Frederick is also my ddads middle name. They sound fine as siblings to me.
I also didn't realise that was the names of the f&f clothes label in tesco.
