[Opinions] Twin name for Henry nn Hal
What suggestions do you have for a name for a Henry's twin sister? Possibilities so far have been Susanna, Leonore/Leonor, and Beatrice/Beatrix... Any thoughts on those? A potential nickname for Henry is Hal, so maybe something with a similar vintage short form.

I like Henry and Susanna. They could go by Hal and Sue.

Shoot, I was hoping it was a twin brother because I was going to suggest David, nn Dave. "I'm sorry, Dave, I can't do that."

Of the names mentioned I like Beatrix the best, with either Trixie or Bea as the nn. Other good options could be Ruth "Ruthie", Annabelle "Annie", Gwendolyn "Gwen", Charlotte "Lottie", Miriam "Mim" or Priscilla "Cilla".

I love Henry, and I love old fashioned nicknames! Here's a few:
Annie (or maybe Anne "Annie", Anna "Annie")
Isabel/Isabelle "Belle"
Dorothy "Dottie"
Bridget "Biddy"
Elizabeth "Bess" or Elizabeth "Bessie" (Elisabeth is nice too if you want something a little more unique)
Caroline "Carrie" or Caroline "Callie" (Hal and Callie might rhyme a little too much)
Elizabeth "Elsie"
Esther "Essie"
Florence "Flora"
Georgia "Gigi" (Gigi could really work with any name beginning with G)
Josephine "Josie" "Jo", or "Posy"
Jane "Janie"
Joan "Joanie"
Katherine/Catherine "Kate"
Katherine/Catherine "Kitty"
Louise/Louisa "Lou"
Helena "Lena"
Helen "Nellie" or "Nell"
Anne "Nancy"
Minnie

Anna
Victoria
