Help with twin names

We don't know the genders yet but like the following

Girl/girl twins - Layla and Lilly
Girl/boy twins - Layla and Louis
Boy/boy twins - Louis and Cian

I never knew I loved names beginning with L! I'm not sure if having the same initial makes it a bit of a mouthful saying them together. What do people think?

Other names we like are Imogen, India, Grace, Margot, Henry, Ellis, Billy, Alexander. Any other suggestions?

I have the same first initial as my brother and that's caused all kinds of headaches over the years - I even paid in a tax rebate meant for him into my account as my mum gave me the letter thinking it was for me. Twins will have enough people lumping them together as one entity - at least let them have different initials!
Of your list I think Lily and Imogen go well together, as do Louis and Margot, and Louis and Alexander :)

I think the names are nice but you should give them different initials.
My sibling and I share an initial and it causes bother with post etc.
I like
Lilly and Imogen
Layla and Margot
Cian and Alexander
Alexander and Louis

The L names are too much together. Louis and Cian are nice in themselves but are odd together.

I think your L names are way too similar and each name needs to stand out as an individual.

I like Alexander and Lilly.
Alexander and Louis
Lilly and Imogen.
