Re: Naming the twins

Huck doesn't work for me. Tate does! And Roger Nicholas is so super-excellent that you need something good to live up to it. Shaw is fine, so why not Nigel Alexander Tate and Roger Nicholas Shaw?
Nelle puzzles me - would it sound like Nell or Nellie? And is it wise to use an ambiguous spelling? I hope it's like Nell! Though I had two distant aunts, on different sides of the family, both with Nellie as their one and only name.
I honestly don't enjoy hissy Hester. Esther pleases me more, and I'd also choose Olivia over oily Olive, but then I could - I had an aunt Olive whose actual and unused name was indeed Olivia. Adelaide is nice.
