Twin girls' names shortlist - help please!

[bellarosa22]

Hi all,

Expecting twin girls soon and these are the names on our shortlist. DH is Italian and so we wanted names that worked in both Italy and England.

I'd love it if you could tell me which two of these you like the best/go best together and also suggest middle names from the list!

Thanks all X

Cassandra (nn. Cassie)
Isabella (nn. Bella)
Emma
Alessia (nn. Ally)
Rosalia (nn. Rosie or Lia)
Lucia (nn. Lucy)
Serafina (nn. Sera)
Aurelia (nn. Lia?)

• I am aware that nicknames are formed naturally and most are not chosen, I've just included our preferred nicknames and it would be helpful if you could also offer your opinion on them!

Suggestions are always welcome X

The Lucia I know has issues with people pronouncing it in different ways - Lu-si-a / Lu-chi-a / Lu-thi-a/ even Lucy-a

She now tells everyone she is Lou and everyone assumes she is a Louise.

Cassie and Bella all the way

Cassandra Sofia

Isabella Lucia

Known as Cassie and Bella - love it!

I prefer Isabella and Rosalia

Allessia and Lucia

Cassandra and Isabella = lovely.

Cassandra Joy and Isabella Maeve
Cassandra Jane and Isabella Claire
Cassandra Maeve and Isabella Joy
Cassandra Faye and Isabella Maeve
Cassandra Louise and Isabella Niamh

Congratulations sweetie! I like Aurelia and Isabella. X

Cassandra and Alessia

My reservation about Cassandra, apart from sounding like Sandra (no offence) is that in greek mythology Cassandra was a 'visionary' who foresaw her own death! Sorry! I know I sound like a snob two ways. But I acted in the play Trojan Women when I was 14 and she was the mad one foreseeing her own death....

Ally and Rosie

Seen at Godstone Farm: Heidi and Hetty.
