Names for B/G twins

We are calling boy twin Luke as it is a family name for DH. We have two older DDs with two syllable names both with a 'c' in them (like Darcey but not) and would like a girl twin's name along similar lines, but the ones we like I'm not sure go all that well with Luke, specifically:

Luke and
Anna (but think Luke and Anna together sound a bit bleak and Amish?)
Maisie
Camilla known as Milly
Hazel (DH not keen)

Any other ideas? Thanks!

I think as Luke is quite traditional I wouldn't go too unusual for DD.....
I like Esme...

Now I'll never be able to use Milly or Maisie as will just picture gerbils!!

I do like Anna and the combination but I think that my other DD's names are very much top 10 and I wanted something a bit more unusual (as the twins will definitely be our last).

Other thoughts now are:
Luke and
Sybil
Ivy
Esme?

Annabel?

Also having b g twins (tomorrow morning) and not decided on names. I like Luke a lot and far prefer Anna or Hazel to Milly or Maisie which honestly sound like gerbil names to me.

How about Gracie. I love that name, was going to have it if I ever had a DG x

Luke and Leia

It doesn't need to go with Luke specifically. Fair enough if you want your DC to have a set of names, but consider all four, not just the twins.

Twins after all, are individual people, just like your other children, and won't always be together.

I say this as on B/G twin myself.
