Audrey or Maude

[everly]

For twin sister to Margot.

Sylvie is much nicer and goes very well with Margot. Audrey/Maude sounds like the frumpy sister. Sylvie is more “equal” to Margot in my head.

I know a young Audrey and I think it’s very cool.

Sylvia Margot Smith-Smithingly

Daphne Maud Smith-Smithingly

Perfect!

Neither. But especially not Audrey.

Maud was my great aunt, she died at 93 about 12 years ago. Audrey is my aunt (Maud's daughter), she's 79 now.

So how old is the baby name that you want to use?

Margot and Elise

Margot and Daphne are brilliant together.

Audrey for sure. It's sweet

To me Margot is not as lovely as Matilda, Margaret, Marina, Magdalen or Madeleine.

Minnie? That's just awful. It's a nickname or a mouse!
Suppose she turns out to be large and muscular? Give the child a proper name.

Audrey is fine. I would avoid another M name as it's a bit matchy. Give them distinct identities.
Oh and I don't think there have been scullery maids for more than 100 years.

Names with a similar vibe, not starting with M and not ditsy:
Olive
Sylvia
Beatrice
Winifred
Philippa
Lorna

Oh gosh totally agree! Cutesy names are fine but they need to work when the child becomes an adult and Minnie definitely could not survive that transition! And if the child grew up introverted, small or just generally quite then yiu just know she’d be called Minnie Mouse or some such 🤦🏻‍♀️

I feel Sylvie and Margot match each other in coolness, I would definitely go for them

I wouldn't have twin girls with the same first initial. There's too much potential for errors to be made (with medical records, hospital appointments, school records etc) if they have similar names and the same date of birth.

Love Sylvie. Audrey is OK.

Audrey. Don’t have “M&M” twins.

And now Matilda is also an option, she's my grandmother, born in 1910 and sadly no longer with us. My other grandmother was Margery, quite similar to Margot.

Ha! They were both my grandma’s names.
Maude my mum’s mum
Audrey my dad’s mum

I much prefer Maude (with an e). There was a likeable character in ‘Mockingbird’ called Miss Maudie.

Both are gorgeous and would be a great choice. I went for Audrey as it flows a bit better with Margot.

Personally I think Maud is the most awful of all the names on the planet, ugly looking, sounding and depressing. I don't usually mind Audrey, I think it is quite cute, but seeing it next to Maud somehow makes it a bit depressing and glum. not that you would have and Audrey and Maud.

But I am a random anonymous stranger on the internet and it is just my opinion, we all have different tastes so you do you. (But please not Maud!😉)

Neither sorry. I like ' old fashioned ' names but not those.

I really like Maud, @Neveranynamesleft, I think it's rather lovely. Much nicer than Margot and Audrey.

I agree. I'm amazed anyone likes it. It's just...hideous.

Both awful - Maude especially

Elliott is a boys name too

I like both as names, would choose Audrey of the two as I think having matching initials is a bit naff, but really love the combo Margot and Sylvie!
