WDYTO this twinset?
I was thinking about this hypothetical twinset today:Nikolay Borislav and Alexei IlyaDo they flow all right? Does the end of Alexei and the beginning of Ilya run together? Is it too Romanov (that tends to put me off)? WDYT of it on the whole?TIA!

Love the names! They're some of my favorite Slavic ones. Though I think Nikolay is much better spelled Nikolai. I feel like the spelling you put would be confusing to Americans. Borislav is one of my brother's favorite names. I agree it's way cool. I love both Alexei and Ilya, though I don't they flow well in this combo unfortunately. Aleksy (the Polish spelling -- I'm Polish) is on my shortlist.

I think I'd like Nikolai Borislav and Ilya Alexei better. On the whole, I really love Nikolai, it is a special name for me. I also like Ilya and Alexei, but Borislav I am not fond of at all.
