Having a c-section tomorrow. Non ID twin girls. Have narrowed it down to the following:

Nina and Ella
Nina and Anna - our favourite two names but are they too similar?
Nina and Frida
Nina and Rosa

Nina is non-negotiable as it is very significant to us.

I’m also interested in freddiethegreat’s question. I would be tempted to call them Anna Nina and Rosa Nina rather than Give one a hugely significant name and the other one a name to match the first.

Like all the names except frida

StSaulOfSnacks · 27/02/2020 15:56

Nina and Rosa. The rest are too similar to Nina.

If Nina and Anna are your favourites then just go for them. They are not too. Similar.
Congratulatuons!

Placemarking to see the final outcome! As long as the twins don’t know that you picked one to have a special name of significance to you and then the other twin just got a name to “go” with it.

I think Nina and Anna are lovely whether you use them as they are or as nicknames.

Babies Nina Elizabeth and Rosa Josephine were born at lunchtime yesterday. Both over 7lbs which means I was carrying nearly 15lbs of baby! They are both doing brilliantly.

We changed our mind on Rosa once they were born. It just fits her perfectly.

Thank you for the help deciding. xxx
