We've just discovered we're having twins.

One definitely appears to be a girl. The second we're not sure. So is "twin 2" Grin

I have partial french heritage and so love the name Camille. I like Claudia for her potential sister, but don't love it like Camille. Any suggestions? Also keen on Adrianna and love Eugenie, but I think she'd forever get the Fergie reference. Saskia is pretty but not too sure it goes with Camille.

For a brother, bit stumped. Potentials are Max, Harry, Edward, Marcus and Charles. My favourite of those is Charles, but then I can't really have a Charles and Camille...

Any thoughts?

  • Rafe is great, a favourite of mine, and I like it with Camille
  • Sebastian also good and works for Camille's brother
  • I agree to avoid Charles, but Max, Harry, Edward and Marcus are all good.
  • I'd avoid Juillet - it will get mangled in English and constantly confused with Juliet. Juliet however is lovely and would work well.
  • Adrianna is ok but for my tast a little flowery next to the more streamlined Camille. Adrienne however would work well.
  • I quite like the classic Helena from your list, but just be aware it has at least 3 different pronunciations.
- others that I think would be great as Camille's sibling (some repeats here): Amandine Florence Flora Marion Simone Francesca Romilly Genevieve Romilly Eleanor/Elinor Greta Beatrix

Just seen on another thread for a boy, Rafe.
Quite like that.

Juillet as in July? I don’t know that as a name. Might be mangled in the UK, but as it’s a month some will learn it in school. For twins I’d avoid names with the same initial. Delphine? Marine?

Antoinette?
