I like them.

Eolian · 12/05/2018 17:46

Arabella is lovely. Not at all keen on Everleigh.

Sophronia · 12/05/2018 17:46

I agree with the pp. Arabella is nice but I don’t like Everleigh.

Freyanna · 12/05/2018 17:47

I like Arabella but not Everleigh.

TittyGolightly · 12/05/2018 17:47

Prefer Dairylea.

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 12/05/2018 17:48

Agree with others not keen on Everleigh. How about Evelyn?

Agree with he others.

I prefer Everley. What about Avery?

Aprilmightbemynewname · 12/05/2018 17:49

Like Everley but not Arabella

UniqueAsAUnicorn · 12/05/2018 17:49

With the spelling as Everly - both good.

MollyDaydream · 12/05/2018 17:49

Odd to give one a pretty name when the other sounds like a services on the M4.

Emma198 · 12/05/2018 17:50

I like Everleigh but would probably spell it Everley.

Wildlingofthewest · 12/05/2018 17:54

Gosh, I’m not keen on either!!

Arabella is awful, she will just end up being called Bella...

Everleigh is just a bit of a mouthful and again it will just be shortened to Leigh

Sorry OP but you did ask!!

DrEustaciaBenson · 12/05/2018 17:57

Everleigh is likely to have to deal with people thinking she said 'Beverley' whenever she has to give her name.

Aprilmightbemynewname · 12/05/2018 17:59

I bet not many Beverly's are recorded in 2018 Confused

manicinsomniac · 12/05/2018 18:02

I think they're both lovely but I'm not sure they 'go' together. Which might be exactly what you want with twins but, imo, they're just a bit too different.

I would Arabella with something like:
Charlotte, Cassandra, Delilah, Elizabeth, Emmeline, Evangeline, Francesca, Felicity, Georgina, Hermione, Imogen, Joanna, Juliette, Katherine, Lucinda, Madeleine, Miranda, Matilda, Natasha, Natalie, Olivia, Philippa, Rebecca, Rhiannon, Romilly, Sophia, Tamara, Verity, Victoria, Vanessa, Xanthe, Zara

And Everleigh with something like:
Amberley, Addison, Avery, Blair, Bailey, Casey, Cassidy, Dakota, Devon, Fallon, Genesis, Hadley, Halle, Hayley, India, Jasmine, Kayleigh, Kennedy, Leonie, Layla, Lola, Macey, Miley, Madison, Mackenzie, Mackenna, Nyah, Paige, Piper, Peyton, Quinn, Riley, Reese, Sutton, Saffron, Savannah, Sienna, Sierra, Sabrina, Taylor, Zillah

elephanttrunks · 12/05/2018 18:06

I adore them both! But not the spelling of Everleigh, which is gorgeous as Everley

felicitythemangyfox · 12/05/2018 18:07

Honestly I am not keen on either. Arabella sounds very posh and horsey. Everleigh sounds very not-posh. Sorry.

Marcipex · 12/05/2018 18:10

I thought the spelling is Evalie.
Annabelle and Evelyn is a better combo.

AmazingPostVoices · 12/05/2018 18:10

Not Everleigh

IamNotDarling · 12/05/2018 18:12

Everleigh as in Savannah, Cole and Everleigh?

Either way it’s a no for the UK. Evelyn is good though.

mostdays · 12/05/2018 18:12

I like Arabella.

LoveInTokyo · 12/05/2018 19:43

I think both names are awful, sorry.

AnElderlyLadyOfMediumHeight · 12/05/2018 21:54

MollyDaydream has it. Everley is awful too, Arabella is not my taste but a million times better than Everleigh.

You need something longish and floweryish to go with Arabella. Seraphina, Marianne, Clementine, Matilda (OK, that one's not flowery -but goes, I think)?

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 12/05/2018 22:03

Annabel and Everley.

Shmithecat · 12/05/2018 22:05

Everleigh is a small village in the middle of Salisbury Plain. So no. Not keen on Arabella either.
