Hero and Era for girls. I'd love that, but I don't think I'll ever really use Hero (especially as a FN).
Lovisa and Godiva for girls. I love the sound of them, but I won't use Godiva, because it looks like a combination of God (and I'm not even religious) and Diva (which I kinda associate with drag queens..), and Lovisa looks like "love is a". Well then the whole thing would be: Love is a God diva...
Ruslan and Roman for boys. I would really love this, but Rusland is the Dutch word for Russia, so it looks like I'd be naming my kid Russia. Roman is the Dutch word for novel (the type of book). I think that people may mispronounce it because of that (the book is ro-MAHN, not RO-mahn).
Thierry and Didier for boys. It would be nice, but I'd leave that up to a French person to do that. I think the names would be mispronounced so often it would drive me (and the boys) mad.
