Florence and Siena or too naff?

18 month old Florence currently at home, girl on way.

Not Italian but honeymooned there and they love it.

Florence and Siena ?

Lovely.

I don't think everyone would immediately make the connection.

I agree with Botanical! I think it’s love even when you do realise the connection.

I wouldn't personally, but it is quite sweet. And they won't always be discussed as a pair their whole lives.

Too naff, sorry!

I wouldn't. Both good names in their own right, though.

I think it’s OK. It’s not too obvious. Siena is the Italian city but Firenze for Florence in Italian, anyway, so quite different.

I think it’s absolutely fine. Two really lovely names. Not a problem.

Thanks will pass this on 🙃

I think it’s a bit obvious tbh. And makes them look like Tuscany nuts.

Siena will constantly be spelling it as everyone will assume its double n.

I’d go for Venetia personally. Or an Italian name like Cosima or Raffaella.

It’s fine.

Lovely. I would use them myself but then I am a Tuscany nut 😂

I wouldn't. I think it's twee and I made the connection straight away.

Change the spelling of Siena to Sienna and you might just about get away with it.

It's a no from me. I clicked on this thread with a raised eyebrow and wondering if it was a joke.
That said, DS is at school with a Terra, who has an older sister called Luna. I don't know about the parents, but none of the children have made the connection.

I think it's OK, not everyone would make the connection, but I would spell it Sienna.

I didn’t make an immediate connection. I was thinking of the colour. Lovely names.

I wouldn't either and I think it's pretty obvious.

I know a sibling set called Florence and Siena and it never dawned on me the connection!

Too naff. And Sienna is a type of car.

Twee. Just choose an Italian name, if you want a theme.

No.

Eurgh, it's FAR too twee, even if you are a Tuscan nut!!

And Sienna is a type of car.
Don't you mean a Ford Sierra?

I think it’s lovely.

I think it's fine but definitely spell Sienna
