Twin name to go with Agnes

This is hypothetical at the moment, but I've come to a compromise with DH that if third baby is twin girls we will name one of them Agnes - his mum's name. I don't like the name Agnes but this is what we've agreed to.

Obviously ideally we won't have twin girls now, but if we do what names would go well?

Agnes and Kylie and Agnes and Lexi are not sister pairs I would expect Grin

Agnes and Doris are probably painfully on trend hipster names.

I like Agnes and Mabel. Mabel Agnes could work as a middle name compromise

So is the plan that the hypothetical twin gets Agnes and you get to name the other real life one a name you like?

Emily, Maud, Edith sort of name I suppose! Not my style.

Doris

Florence

Juno

Or any name you really, really like and your DH doesn't.

I'm not assuming they're twins Grin It's a hypothetical question at the moment. The compromise is if we have two girls to name, one of them will be Agnes.

Why are you even assuming they're twins? Especially twin girls?
