Twin girl names, to go with Theo & Amelia

[twinnies1987]

Hello,

We're expecting twin girls soon, and we're finding it so tough to find names we love! As they are identical, we don't want matching names.

Our 2 older children are called Theo (Theodore) and Mimi (Amelia), we potentially want something slightly less mainstream this time. Our surname is quite botanical, so that sort of rules out flower names etc.

Names we like (but not quite set on) include:
Lyra
Lara
Florence
Delphi (is that more of a nickname?)
Reeva (although that reminds me of Oscar Pistorius, so I think that rules it out!)
Eliza
Riley (maybe a bit American)
Tabitha (I love, husband hates)
Mathilda (as above!)

I'd love to hear any new ideas or suggestions!! xx

Florence and Eliza. Gorgeous and sound very aligned with the names of your other children. Congratulations on your new twins!

I like Mollie but isn't there sister Milly ?
Beatrice is lovely ( Bea for short)
Elizabeth and Beatrice ?( Eliza and Bea)
Arabella and Florence ( Bella and Flo)
Charlotte and Rebecca ( Lottie and Becca or Bex?)
Jessica and Elizabeth ?( Jess and Bes- I couldn't resist)

Francesca is also lovely ( Could be Frankie or Tessa/Tess)

I really like Eliza with Theodore and Amelia

If I had older children called Theo and Amelia, I would call twin girls Constance and Josephine.

Margot & Eliza

Yup I think these 2 options are my favourite too! He’s still not keen 🫠

I like these too! I guess nn could be Florrie (not that keen on Flo!)

Eliza and Matilda.

Tabitha just makes me think of a tabby cat so I am with your husband on this one
what about
Sienna
Aurora
Shiloh
Kyra
Savannah
Isla?

Artemis and Athené

Theodore, Amelia, Lara and Florence

From your list, I think Lara and Florence go very well together and with your older children’s names too. Both two syllables. I think Charlotte and Florence also work, though I know you didn’t want something quite as popular…

Lyra - not keen on sound
Lara - lovely name
Florence - lovely name
Delphi - doesn’t fit other names
Reeva - sad association
Eliza - lovely name
Riley - doesn’t fit other names
Tabitha - ok
Mathilda - or Matilda? It’s frustrating having to spell names out all the time

Floss is a sweet nickname for Florence. Florence and Eliza are lovely ❤

I like Arabella, Florence & Beatrice to go with your names. Bella, Florrie/Floss & Bea. Congratulations!

God what a dilemma!!

I'll go Margot and Eliza.

Delphi I'd assume was short for Delphine.

Margot & Henrietta (Hetty)
Margot & Persephone (Seffi)

This is hard! Best of luck with everything OP.

Margot, Serena, Eliza

My thoughts though are that these names don't easily shorten unlike your other two children.

Unless you like ‘Marg’ 🤔

The babies are here and somehow we’ve gotten “twin 1” and “Eliza”.

twin 1 desperately needs a name poor thing 😆

Cleo, Noah, Ava, Lottie/Lotta, Beatrice (Bea), Cara,

Rosie and Cleo.

Congratulations! 🎉
Florence and Eliza
Beatrice and Eliza
(still think both of these sound great)
Genevieve and Eliza
Penelope and Eliza
Charlotte and Eliza
Chloe and Eliza
Madeleine and Eliza

Molly and Eliza sound lovely too

Leni and Lois

Congratulations 🎊

Kitty and Eliza ❤️

Congratulations!
I think Theodore, Amelia, Charlotte and Eliza
Theo, Mimi, Lottie and Liza
