Odette

Thoughts? We already have an Aurora, aged 3. I know they’re both names of princesses and from ballet so I’m concerned that using them as sibling names will be a bit... twee?

Other name suggestions are appreciated for a girl and boy. Middle names for Odette too as we’re struggling.

Thanks, Liz x

Have you considered Claudette? It's a similar sound but I prefer it to the 'odd' sound.

Love Odette! I think it goes nicely with Aurora.

I was honestly expecting negative reactions!

@FoggyDay58 I like Ottilie, thank you. Viola is just about the only middle name I can think of for Odette right now so flower names might be worth checking out.

Complements Aurora beautifully! Not twee at all. Love them both. Memorable and unique for both girls also. Good taste OP!

Lovely! Both nice names and will go nice together.

Makes me think of Odette Churchill, the wartime SOE spy.

I really like them. I don't think they're twee.

Beautiful name and the combination is wonderful. How about a flower for the middle name? And Ottilie as an alternative first name?
