Twin Name that goes with Reuben??

Pretty set on the name Reuben with the nickname Rue but struggling to find a name for his twin sister. So far narrowed down to:

Elina nn Ellie/Elle
Emilia nn Emi
Rosalie nn Rose/Rosie
Theadora nn Thea

any other suggestions are welcome too

Prefer Emilia and Thea from your list.

Also like Reuben with Eliza

@DrHat thought it had a familiar ring to it!!! Now that you've pointed it out it seems glaringly obvious 😀

I instantly though Reuben and Bella!

Rubella? 🤦‍♀️

Reuben and Delilah sounds lovely to me - Reu and Lilah.

Reuben and Lauren flows nicely for twins.

Love Reuben so much! The R theme is such a nice one if you wanted them both the same initial. Some of my favourite R names just now are:

Renn
Reeva
Remie
Romy

Changing the spelling from Reuben to Rue will surely be confusing?? I love the name though

Reuben and Elfrida - Rue and Elf? Or Frida and Rue?

continentallentil · 01/08/2023 22:02

Or Caitlin

Imogen

Of yours I’d go for Theodora nn Thea, it’s popular but Emilia and Ella/Ellie names have been so overdone and you don’t want two R names
