Any problems I'm missing?

We have a DD called Heidi Joy Lewis (not actual surname but similar) and I'm expecting #2, sex unknown.
The only names we both like so far are Rudy for a boy and Annika (we'd probably call her Anni for short).
Do you think these work with Heidi? Is it too matchy to have a y/i ending name? Are these serial killer names? Are they slang for cock or anything? Any other obvious issues?

Also we're a bit stuck for middle names. I thought maybe Alexander. I think Annika Lewis would need a single syllable middle name but I can't think of any good ones and don't want Grace or May. Any ideas?
Thanks :)

As PPs have said - Anni really needs to be avoided with an L surname. There was an Anne L at my school and she got called anal all the time!

Annika nn Anni is beautiful

How about

  • Annika Iris (I know it's two but it's short and beautiful)
  • Annika Ruth (love Anni Ruth as an occassional pet name)
  • Annika Kate / Cate
  • Annika Phoebe (I just think it sounds beautiful)

Not a fan of Rudy I'm afraid.

Your girls choice is beautiful and goes nicely.
I'd personally reconsider your boys ideas.

Annika Faye is beautiful. I prefer the Annica spelling though.

Sorry really don't like Rudy at all.
