So, our girl name had always been Georgina but last week, my wife decided she didn’t like it any more but loved Matilda. Now I’m being told that she’s gone back the other way again and Georgina is back on the table. (I have whiplash at this point!) We still like Matthew (I’d prefer a less common name but we can’t find one we like.) so now we’re looking at Georgina and Matthew for our twins. Thoughts?

Georgina is awesome. I like nn Gina/Genie too.

Matthew is also a great name.

Georgina, Matthew and Matilda are all lovely.

There might be a few more name changes yet but yes Georgina and Matthew are great names. Keep smiling and nodding!

Georgina and Matthew are lovely

Georgina and Matthew - perfect

Matilda and Matthew - nowhere near perfect

Well, that’s sounding more positive than last time! Thanks, everyone. We’ve not definitely decided but I think we’re nearing a consensus 😊

Georgina is a great name, and more unusual than Matilda these days.

Well just to mix things up a bit, I think Georgina is a nice name but I prefer Mathilda - and to me Matthew and Mathilda is the perfect twin-set. Love it!

Georgina is a million times nicer than Matilda.
I say go with Georgina and Matthew!

Georgina and Mathew are nice and flow together.

Matilda and Mathew are very "twin-set" names and could potentially end up as the 2 Matt's at school.

Georgina & Matthew are lovely classical names.

I really detest the name Matilda, it's rather harsh and unattractive imo.
Nickname for Matilda would be 'Mat'? With brother Matthew aka 'Matt' I'd avoid pairing them together.
