Like I mentioned in my previous post DH and I are expecting twin girls very soon!!
We we’re back and forth between India and Cassia or Emilia and Isabella but are now only set on India and need help with a name to match.
Our surname is hyphened and both names start with S so any names beginning with S or A doesn’t work.
Names we like but won’t/can’t use are
Lucia (DHs ex is Lucy so he’s against it)
Savannah
Saskia
Aila
Sienna
I was thinking maybe India and Elena?
Middle names will be quite long.
Any ideas?

@Whataretheodds
I really can’t imagine our daughter being called Emilia or Isabella. I think both are perfectly lovely names but I know so so many!! I wish I could just compromise on one of them but I really can’t.

Some other names he’s suggested are Tessa, Madeline and Pippa which again I just don’t love.
He really likes India so I’m not forcing him into a name he doesn’t like (was more so with Cassia).
Gosh names are so difficult!!

Strike Lucia off if your DH doesn't like it.

What does he think of Elena?

If one is called India then you've got your way on that one. Why not let him choose the other name?
