Elizabeth and Georgiana?
Would having an Elizabeth and a Georgiana be too much? I've already asked about Elizabeth, but what do you think of Georgiana? Would they be better as first names or middle names?Do they sound okay with my DS's name (Caleb Nicholas)?
*They are characters from my favorite book, Pride and Prejudice, but they are also family names (Elizabeth on my side, and Georgiana on DH's.) Thanks!

I love Georgiana. I've met a little one nicknamed Georgie. She was so sweet. I think it goes very well with Elizabeth. They're not too much because they're in the same style and don't conflict at all.

I don't think anything can be too much when alongside Elizabeth. It's so common and plain for a lot of people. I think those would be beautiful names for sisters. Both names are gorgeous. I like them both as first names, though I think Georgiana makes a nice middle name too.I think they would be alright with your son's name. Georgiana alone not quite as much, but if there was an Elizabeth first it kind of ties it in.

Elizabeth would definitely be first since Caleb got a name from DH's side of the family. The first of his family to come to America was a Nicholas, along with half the males afterward, lol. He's vetoed my first choice to honor family, Viola. I did veto his Nando, though, so we're even.

I prefer Georgia or Georgina (nn Nina)

I thought Pride and Prejudice right away but I don't think most people would. They're both nice and I think they both go well with Caleb.

I love Georgiana, and though it's not Puritan-y like Caleb (or Elizabeth for that matter), I think that Caleb and Georgiana would go together amazingly. It's a spunky set! Elizabeth is so-so for me; it's one of those classic beautiful names that I admire but don't get too excited about. I much prefer Eliza. Eliza and Caleb are beyond fab together - they've both got a quaint old-world wholesomeness to them.

I love Georgiana -- however, I think the name clashes with Caleb.
