It's nice, but I prefer Ella (or Nellie) and Libby instead of Nell and Bess. Also, Patty can be a nickname for Martha if you prefer that.

Other names you might like:
Adelaide / Adele / Adelle "Addy / Addie"
Annabel "Belle" or "Bella"
Amelia / Camille "Millie"
Cecilia / Frances / Priscilla "Cissy / Sissy" or "Cilla"
Francesca "Franny" / "Fanny"

I suppose some of those could be too common, but I still think they are nice and not overly popular

Ella is still a bit too common for Eleanor, but Patty for Martha is interesting. It doesn't have the same feel as Nell and Bess and the p is a bit odd, but it's still interesting.

I like Amelia nn Millie and Francesca nn Franny, although I would probably go with Frances instead of Francesca.
