Margot and Audrey - nice 50s vibe
Iris and Sylvie - floral, woodland sprite names
Clara and Astrid - Scandinavian
Flora and Mabel - Edwardian style
Daphne and Violet - floral, avant garde 30s style
Violet and Ottilie - Victorian and pretty

I love-

Iris and Clara
Mabel and Clara
Mabel and Iris

Also lovely -
Audrey and Margot
Iris and Violet
Mabel and Flora

I think Ottilie is a bit long for a twin name (unless you’re planning for her to be known as Tilly) - speaking from experience, shorter names are easier to shout quickly in the park with twins, when they’re both running in different directions!! 😂

Audrey and Mabel

BunnyRuddington · 26/05/2025 17:38

Daphne and Clara.

Violet & Astrid - lovely pairing, both elegant and equally strong sounding

Pemba · 26/05/2025 17:44

Audrey and Sylvie - a classy, mid century vibe. Sylvia even better actually, maybe have Sylvie for short?

Apparently Sylvie is considered dated now in France.

Sylvie and Mabel
Audrey and Astrid

Margot & Clara
Flora & Ottilie

I met older twin girls (teens) called Eliza and Isabelle last week. Thought their names went well!

It does sound nice I suppose, but basically Isabel/la is a version of Elizabeth, as is Eliza of course, so in a way the two sisters have the same name!

WildCherryBlossom · 26/05/2025 17:48

Margot and Sylvie
or
Daphne and Clara

Profpudding · 26/05/2025 17:49

Astrid and Violet

Purplesphere11 · 26/05/2025 17:55

I'm not sure about the pairing but I adore the name violet. It's was my grandmother's name and she was the kindest person I've ever met. Maybe violet and Clara? Very pretty names

AndyouWILLATONE · 26/05/2025 17:56

Mabel and Violet

Rachie1973 · 26/05/2025 21:01

One syllable is best in this scenario

so Mabel = May
Flora = Flo
so you’d shout Flomay

Iris = Ris
Violet = Vi
so you’d shout Viris ( 🤣 I didn’t see that coming )

DrPrunesqualer · 27/05/2025 04:04

I like Margot and Iris

Ohrainyrainy · 27/05/2025 04:12

I'm sorry but I'm not that keen on any of the names on the list.
Probably Margot and Clara would be the most acceptable.
I really don't see how anyone could use the name Flora these days because of its overwhelming association with tubs of margarine.

user1492757084 · 27/05/2025 10:35

Astrid and Ottilie
Astrid Anneke and Ottilie Isobel

Iris and Audrey
Iris Victoria and Audrey Katharine

Margot and Clare or Margaret/Meggan and Clara
Margot Catherine and Clare Jamima
Margaret Clare and Clara Margarita
Meggan Susanna and Clara Elizabeth

Clara is my favourite by a long way, but Violet, Iris and Margot are nice too. I really dislike Daphne, Ottilie and Mabel.

I’d use Clara and Violet.

Readytohealnow · 27/05/2025 11:00

All lovely except Ottilie and Mabel

everly · 27/05/2025 15:24

Thankyou, most of you have been a great help.

My favourites at the moment are Margot, Sylvie and Audrey.
