DD 1 is called Tabitha. I love, LOVE Roisin! I'm probably going to have to use it as a middle, aren't i Hmm

Lovely names. Why not use Roisin?

Just because it doesn't seem to go with Tabitha very well. Genevieve is the alternative, which I also love.

For DD1 we struggled to decide the order of Tabitha and Cerys, and it's a similar situation with Genevieve and Roisin...

They're probably not going to live together or be in very close quarters for the majority of their lives, and even if they are, why do their names need to match? I think they're all lovely names!

Like, people aren't going to refer to them as 'Tabitha and Roisin' forever.

I think you're overthinking this.

Nothing wrong with those two names together.

Tabitha is Hebrew
Roisin is Irish
Genevieve is German (apprently, I always thought it was French!)

Not sure what makes a the Hebrew/German combo more 'matchy' than the Hebrew/Irish combo. Choose the name you love!
