Sisters called Lois and Lana: first thoughts without reading other replies?

[Geargrinder]

Just as the title says. What do you think of Lois and Lana as siblings? TIA.

I really like the name Lois. It was on the short list for if ds1 was a girl. I wouldn't use it with Lana though, just because of the superman thing.

The only thing I'd think is that the parents obviously liked 4 letter names beginning with L.

Makes me think of a couple of country and western singers, not sure why.

I love Lois though.

I like you fluffy

Superman. With feeling sorry for Lana!

Feeling sorry for Lana? Sorry, confused, it's me who's confused now.

Don't do it. Apart from the Superman thing, Lois is quite a Sunday School ish name with a little edge to it whereas Lana is more Hollywood so imo they are names with different feels to them.

I know sisters names Elizabeth and Taylor.

Lois lane

Also as they both start with 'l' people will mix,confuse the names IMO

ignore everyone. i love them so do it

sorry don't like either of them and sound common and naff together and too americany!

Too similar.

Superman.

I always wanted to call my DD Pheobe, was worried people would associate it with Friends. But now, no one would think of that, and I gave wasted my chances to use my favourite name.

So, I say go for it!

Just a little naff for being a bit samey but nice names and unusual.

Superman/Lois Lane. Sorry.

Also I think Lana is a nice name, but not keen on Lois personally, it's a bit old-fashioned and frumpy. You might want to give them different initials as well.

Superman

Reminds me of my dogs Pepper and Pickle. You'll forever be mixing them up. Both names nice though.

cheesesarnie do I know you?

I got over the same initial thing a loooong time ago in this battle. For same-ish you want my husband's latest suggestion: layla and Lana.

I'm surprised about Lois being seen as boring/Sunday school-ish, it's not at all what it conjures up in my mind.

Have tried hunting old Hollywood to get something else to go with Lana, but nothing else we agree on. Thanks for the replies.

Lois Lane of course!

Superman

umm don't think so but i love those two names . i know a louis but not a lana so it's unlikely that we know each other!

Thanks Bof. I already mix up the dogs' and child's names on a regular basis and they're all very different. I'll speak to whichever will respond.

cheese I thought you might be someone I'd talked to about this away from here backing me up. Good to know there is impartial support for our likely choice!
