Due twin girls the start of October.

We had decided on Everly Genevieve & Spencer Ottilie. My DH loved Spencer but has went off it recently & we are gonna choose another name.

He won't let me have Ottilie 😞.

We like -
Verity (DH choice)
Mila or Veda.

Help us 🤷🏻‍♀️

I like Everly and Veda. Good luck!

Yes also came here to say Veda is a lovely loaf toasted with some banana on top

Everly and Veda, as they are both unusual. Not sure about Everly and Verity. And Mila seems to getting very popular.

Have nieces named Addison & Eden.

Ottilie is a family name that's why we are using it as a middle name after a great grandmother.

What about Ottoline? Avoids the ie/y ending and has lovely books!

I know someone with 2 little girls (not twins though) called Everley and Addison.
I think the 2 names have a similar vibe and go very nicely together.

Unfortunately Genevieve and Ottilie aren't an option, that's why they are middle names. I'm leaning towards Mila. Everly is a definate.

I can't vote for Veda. Where I come from, it's a type of bread. It's lovely but it's a loaf, not a girl's name.

Love Genevieve and Verity

HarrietVane99 · 19/08/2017 17:43

I wonder if Everly will have a lifetime of people thinking she said 'Beverly' whenever she introduces herself.

I like Verity. I don't like 'O' names generally, so Ottilie would be a no for me.

Veda! Unusual!! But lovely

GeillisTheWitch · 19/08/2017 17:39

Everly and Mila is OK. Everly and Verity is a bit of a mouthful, although Verity is still much much better than Spencer.

Sorry for being so boring Hmm

Mclaren37 · 19/08/2017 17:35

I like Veda and Ottilie. Everly is nice too but has a different feel to it. I have to say I really don't like Spencer for a girl. Everly and Veda would get my vote for twins if you can't have Ottilie.

😂😂😂😂, don't think we need the ohhh it's a boys name conversation as last time. It's boring, we've decided to change it. Moving forward...

I agree to me spencer is a boys name.

I like Verity but not together with Everly

IndianaMoleWoman · 19/08/2017 17:32

I would presume Spencer was a boy, sorry.

If you're still going with Everly, I'd avoid another y/ie ending if I were you so their names aren't too matchy-matchy.
