[Opinions] I hope your husband listens to you!
in reply to a message by Jamie
I agree with you. First of all, I don't think it's ever really acceptable to name siblings after famous lovers. Louis and Armand aren't bad in and of themselves, but I'm not overly familiar with the Chronicles to know what potential problems they would have. I think it's nice that the names mean something to him, and books are often inspiriation, so these two I think are ok.December Riley is rather trendy (and nmsaa), but not bad. The problem I have with Jenna Jamie is that Jenna Jameson is a well known porn actress, and this reminds me of it. I do like that December and Jenna aren't matchy twin names.I don't really have much to say about yours. They're nice and not overly twiny. Good sibling pairs. Not a fan of Jade in and of itself, though.Good luck.

I agree, I hope your husband listens, maybe come to an agreement like Olivia December and Jade Riley? I don't know but I like the names you picked!

DittoAdam and Eva are nice because of the biblical connection, but I agree with naming siblings after famous lovers - this is why I really have a problem with Juliet (with or without a Romeo as a brother)Louis and Armand arent my style, but nice enough. However, I know nothing about the Chronicles.December is a month, not a name - otherwise the combo would be okay. Jenna Jamie doesnt flow to me and with a "famous" porn star with Jenna Jameson out there, I would advise otherwise. I like you names, although not fan of Jade and I loathe Liam.
Maybe a compromise. Oliver Louis, Jade Eva, Liam Riley - you get the picture.

I completely agree. It would be awful to name kids Romeo and Juliet, or Tristan and Isolde, etc.
