So I posted before about some of DHs more interesting name choices. We have spoke about it a lot today and made a short list, looking for opinions on the names and help pairing them for our twin girls Wes te expecting.
I feel like I've compromised a lot and DH less so but is what it is. DH also really wants them to match with his older adult daughters name but I'm less fussed and think this will be hard to do, but her name is China.

So far we have

Scarlett
Sienna
Saskia
Adelaide
Florence
Clementine
Carissa
Cassie

My favourite pair is Adelaide and Florence but sort of hate that they are both place names along with China.

DH likes Sienna and Saskia best.

Favourite set or any names we might also like?

Cassie and Clementine is cute

Haha, that's fair enough.

I'm just thinking of people who I've known with 'Place' names that were really lovely people and they were

Eden and Savannah

Perhaps Adelaide and Savannah

Or Sienna and Eden?

Just re-read your list.

Cassandra with Cassie for short is lovely too!

Francesca (Frankie) might suit your DP's taste too and work as a middle ground.

I'm not keel on Florence, I know quite a few and I'm really not keen on 'Flo'

I love Scarlet and Saskia.

Adelaide is very cute too and also works well for when older.

I quite like Francesca and Adelaide. Both elegant, strong longer names, that can have cutsie nn's.

He doesn't like Francesca as it is the name of his older DDs best friend!
