Names for twins?

Hi MNers,
Having twins early September -don't know the sex of the babies. This is what we've come up with:
Boy - Girl: Arthur and Daisy
Boy Boy: Arthur and Henry
Girl Girl: Daisy and Millie
Struggling with girl middle names - we like Millie Rose but not sure about Daisy Rose - a bit flowery! Boy middle names will be DH's name and my brother's name.
They will be our first DC's.

Any thoughts welcome!

Thanks dizzy. I like Amelie (Millie for short) but not so keen on Amelia or Millicent. Jessica is def. a possibility for a second girl - Daisy and Jess sounds good together I think!

Still thinking about the 'Kings of England' thing - will broach with dh over tea!

My friend has a Bella, a Lily and a Jess!

Daisy, Millie and Arthur are lovely, not quite so keen on Henry. How about Daisy Anna?

why not have Jessica nn Jess and Amelie/Amelia/Camille/Millicent known as Millie then?

Thanks all! Katylou - I hadn't thought of the history thing tbh - though a good point! Me and DH have different tastes in boys' names and it took us ages to find 2 we agreed on!
Screaming - also point taken on the little girl / adult thing. Daisy Jesse was my nan's name and that's why we like Daisy (she didn't though, and called herself Jesse her whole life!). We have some other ideas for a second girl - we like Bella, Lily and Jess as well.

Really great to get some feedback.

Also like May as a middle, thanks smallblessings!

I like Daisy May too - is on my list for if I ever have a girl - and love Daisy and Millie together. Not sure about Arthur and Henry together makes me think of Kings and history not a good association for me but may be for you!!!

I like them.

How about
Millie Cecilia and Daisy Camille

dizzydixies · 10/07/2009 18:56

love Arthur and Henry but I've never been a huge fan of either Daisy or Millie - just personal taste though, they're perfectly lovely names

Daisy Kate a possible mn combo?

congrats on your twins

I like your boys names.

I'm sorry, but I don't like the girls names. They are great for baby and little girl, but not for an adult, IMVHO

Sorry
