Twin girl names??

[outinthesticksmummy]

ARRRAGGH!! Help really need a sounding board.

We are having twin girls in July, had our boys names all sussed but don't really have a clue about girls.

Both quite like Verity and Amelie ?? but wondered if Verity was a very harsh name??

Also like Edie, but not sure about the other name??

Any ideas for twin girls??

Had twin boys 6.5 yrs ago but had decided on Sophie and Katie if they were girls

My choice would be Annabel and Sophie.

I like Amelie but not Verity.

Alice and Kate

Jessica and Leah

Elyse and Ruby

Ellie and Rose

Briony and Grace

Olivia and Megan

Thanks everyone. Have decided to drop Verity, it seems to evoke a love hate reaction, which unsettles us a bit. Were never quite sure on it, def helped to get opinions!

Sophie and Amelie

?

I am loving the name Estella as well, it's so pretty.

I have a lovely friend called Verity but you could always use it as a middle name. Your suggestions are all nice, I would just avoid any 2 names which start with the same letter (I have a friend called Rebecca with a sister called Rachel and they always get mixed up) any which rhyme or which have a rhyming feel to them e.g. Olivia and Susanna, not a true rhyme but people might still get mixed up. Names with a similar theme might be tricky too even if not obvious e.g. Rose and Lily?

Bertha and Gert.

Hi a friend has Estelle and Amelie although not twins. Think they go well together. One suggestion I heard was to call the younger twin the name that is first alphabetically so they are first in something IYSWIM. Did not do this myself though as DH named them as they popped out.

Love Verity! Very Poldark Means truth doesnt it? I would follow your instinct with names, if you like it stick with it.

Phillipa (pippa)
Penelope (penny)

Eleanor
Alexandra

Faith
Hope

Temperance
Patience

ok getting silly now lol

I love Verity too (Poldark fan here!) but dh wouldn't have it because he said it was too similar to Felicity, and he hates that!

I love Verity. Not sure about Amelie, what about Grace (tho v popular) or Constance?

Don't do "ee" on the end of both names, one "ee" on the end of a name is ok but not both.

So not Verity and Felicity for example.

For some reason when you call one girl the other will hear the -ee and come running as well (well in our case shout "yeah")

or Eleanor and Rose go nicely together
Grace and Jane (much underrated name IMO)

actually Constance is growing on me a LOT (adds to hypothetical list for hypothetical DC2)

Verity already there but DH not keen

Verity, Amelie, Edie.....all lovely I think.
Verity's not at all harsh.

Oh, sorry, you've moved on!

I'm afraid I don't like Verity either...but I do love Amelie/Amelia.

How about...

• Amelie and Eloise (My persoal favourite combo. Both 3 syllable French names and very pretty )

• Amelie and Celeste

• Amelie and Aurora

• Amelia and Elysia

• Amelia and Ilona

• Amelie and Louisa

What d'ya think ?

Susie

yeah they're still coming!!

Love Celeste!! watched the film Waitress at the weekend, now like the name Jenna lots too

Glad you like Celeste!
If you like that kind of name, I was also thinking you might like to think about...

Marina
Alicia
Lucille
Colette

PS. Jenna's not a fav for me...but how about Jemima ?

Jemima puddleduck springs to mind. sorry.

mmmm Colette is nice

Ooh, my fantasy twin girl names are Linnet & Wren. Doubt I'd be allowed them (or the twins at that matter.)

Alice & Lucy

Sophie & Emma

Meredith & Anneliese

Willow and Hazel
(but i like nature names)
Ciel is a pretty name too
