Hi! My sister is having a twin boy and girl in April! She isn’t on Mumsnet and wants me to help with names for each! She already has a daughter called Elisabeth Sofia Garcia because of her husband being Spanish! She says she’s possibly wanting a Spanish or French (our dad was a sixth French) middle name for both! So far she has got
GIRL
Lillia
Juliet
Lottie (she loves this but not Charlotte)
Aya
Celia
Louise
Madeline (would be shortened to Maddie)
Freya
Rae
Becca

BOY
Leo
Diego
Lucas
Tadeo
Milo (her fave)
Henri
Noel
Alfie
Evan
Elliot

please help x

I voted for Lottie Rae and Alfie Diego, but they are all nice names!

I like the name Celia, too.

I voted for Lillia and Lucas because these are my favourite first names from your choices. I also really like Madeline and Milo. I’m not so keen on Lottie and Alfie as they are gorgeous for babies but not sure if they are a bit informal sounding for adults? They are getting more commonly used as full names though so it might not be a big issue by the time the babies grow up.

I like Lillia and Milo or Madeline and Lucas better as pairings, personally, to avoid matching initials

Lillia and Evan are gorgeous!

Louise and Henri

MaloneMeadow · 09/02/2024 23:12

From her list I love Lottie & Madeleine!

Some more French/Spanish inspiration:
Celeste
Clara
Lucia
Maia
Amelie
Elise
Beatrice
Francesca (Italian but also commonly used in France)

Really not keen on Rae - it means female sheep! Just a filler name and along the same lines of Mae, Rose, Grace etc which every other little girl has as a middle name

Boys wise Lucas is my favourite by far!

How about:

Sebastian
Hugo
Emilio
Matteo

Whatevershallidowithmylife · 09/02/2024 23:23

Lottie Rae is lottery in Scotland! I think their DD name is quite British hence my favourites are to match Elisabeth Sophia Garcia
Louise Freya Garcia
Lucas Milo Garcia

MaloneMeadow · 09/02/2024 23:42

Won’t let me edit my post but just having a think - Claudia, Isabella & Antonio are lovely as well

LiquoriceAllsorts2 · 10/02/2024 06:59

Love Lottie and Milo.
what about Hugo?

Juliet and Henri

DesertSnow · 10/02/2024 09:07

If she loves Lottie but not Charlotte, how about Carlotta?

OnOtherPlanets · 10/02/2024 09:13

I don’t like any of the girl options. Lucas or Tadeo for a boy, but would they pronounce Lucas the French way?

user1492757084 · 10/02/2024 14:25

Lottie Louise and Milo Jacques
Rebecca Rae and Louis Francois
Cleo Camille and Evan Maximus

pontipinemum · 10/02/2024 14:47

Not the point at all but I can't work it out, how can you be 1/6th French? I am probably missing the obvious.

If Milo is her fav go for it, it's lovely. I like most of the girls names, but really dislike Rae, but that is probably because I don't like the people the have used Rae as a middle name.

caringcarer · 10/02/2024 15:01

Emilio and Madeline
Milo and Emilia
Emilio and Elodie

YourLocal · 10/02/2024 20:37

Oop I meant an eighth!! I can’t use my brain these days! It’s definitely an eighth
