Since I've posted this I've completely hit a wall and I'm unsure on any name now none spring to mind. I'm approaching my due date ( 20th August) but have been told that it's a high possibility because of having twins they could come fairly early. I want to have a name for them when they arrive.
So.. all names
Boy girl, girl girl, boy boy even unisex.
I like old fashioned ish unique and longer names such as Penelope Frances etc.. thank you xxx

Love Eleanor and Frances.

Penelope and Eleanor are too similar.

Don’t like Frances-Grace hyphenated.

Penelope and Grace
Eleanor and Frances

All really nice names, although personally I wouldn't hyphenate Frances and Grace. That's just me though, nothing wrong with it hyphenated Smile

Penelope, OR Eleanor if you are going for those nicknames. Frances but NOT Frances-grace.

AsAProfessionalFekko · 26/07/2018 19:50

First 2 lovely but not sure about having a 'Nell 'n Ella' though!
