We want strong, feisty names for our twin girls. Which combo do you prefer?

Frieda and Nina
Aphra and Greta
Tess and Olive
Dorothea and Emmeline

Tess and Olive

Or

Greta and Frieda

Lovely names!

Love your first 2 children's names but not keen on any of your choices other than Dorothea.

MikeUniformMike · 19/06/2019 17:28

Dorothea wil be Thea so no. Dorothy is nicer.
The best names are Tess and Nina, and Greta is ok.

I do love Dorothea, but I probably wouldn't pick that if you already have a Theo.

My favourites would be Aphra and Emmeline.

schnubbins · 19/06/2019 17:53

Frieda and Nina ..love them.

TurquoiseAndPurple · 19/06/2019 18:12

Definitely avoid Dorothea if you already have a Theo.

userabcname · 19/06/2019 18:14

I love Olive! So I'd pick Tess and Olive on that basis. Unless you're open to swapping the names a bit, in which case I'd go Olive and Emmeline.

Aphra & Olive (helpful Grin )

LadyGardens · 19/06/2019 19:47

I was afraid people would say that about Dorothea and Theo.

I’m not closed minded to swapping some of the combinations around. I was keen on Frieda and Aphra or Aphra and Nina.

My favourite two names are Frieda and Nina but I think they sound odd together.

Nina and Tess are fab!

gerbilfun · 19/06/2019 19:58

Greta and nina

Havenly · 19/06/2019 20:02

Nina and Tess- not one of your combinations, sorry, but nice names separately and together.

cindersrella · 19/06/2019 20:17

Scarlett & Amelia
Rose & Emily
Ethel & Mabel

You could ask a zillion people and the majority might totally disagree with your choices. I’d say go with your gut. How did you choose your other two?

AshQ · 22/06/2019 09:49

I like Tess and Olive or Tess and Nina.

Kittykatmacbill · 22/06/2019 11:41

Definitely Greta it’s a lovely name with Tessa also great name.
