Help[Opinions] Xanthe & Adelaide nn Addie (m)
in reply to a message by edenrowe
I'm not happy with Xanthe's middle names, but today I'll stick with:
Xanthe Lyric Evangeline
Adelaide Lucy Aviva nn Addie
Normally I wouldn't put these two together because I don't like them for twins. But lately I'm loving Adelaide too much to pass on it for a second girl, even if that second girl happenes to be Xanthe's twin.
And, as part of the reason I don't like them for twins is that Xanthe and Addie rhyme, you are probably going to guess my answer to the second question! I don't like rhyming names like Leda and Freda at all, for siblings or twins. They are going to be compared to each other and confused with each other enough as it is, especially if they are identical. Ofcourse this isn't such a big deal for rhyming nicknames. As for a theme such as RUby and Scarlett- I don't mind this if your favourite two girls names happen to be Ruby and Scarlett and you'd name two girls this wether they were twins or not- you shouldn't have to give up one of your favourites. But to do it on purpose? Thats just cutesy and cheesy IMO.
Ok..I'm done.
