Frederick and Florence?

DS is Frederick (Freddie). Would have been Florence if he had been a girl. Am not pg, but I still love the name Florence. Would you immediately think of Tesco clothing if you heard of siblings Freddie and Florence (prob called Flossie when little)? And, if so, does it matter? Any suggestions of what else works well with Freddie? I also like Rosalie, but it's a bit close to Fred and Rose, which isn't great, and Josephine.
Just canvassing opinion of a Friday evening!

Teacups link didn't cross my mind but I don't like the sound of the two names together - but I don't like alliteration in sibling names. Frederick & Florence seem a bit if a mouthful

Teacups! Tesco!

Books were lovely. I'd love to find them to re-read them

I have a friend whose children are called Florence and Fred. When I first met her she just told me their names, "like Tescos" and she laughed. That was the only time I have ever heard anyone pass comment since then.

I you like the name I really wouldn't let the Tescos connection stop you.
