Re: Annika and Linnea
in reply to a message by Solveig
I really like them together. BTW, I sometimes call my Anna by the nn Annika.
Recently, I came across something online where this woman was talking about the names of her twins (b/g). She discovered that Linnea means 'twinflower' and upon looking up the picture of a twinflower, they are tulip shaped and have a pink color. Her new little flower of a dd had a rosy complexion and since she was a twin, the mother found it very fitting and named her dd Linnea. I believe her brother was named Felix.
I've always liked the name Thomas for a twin and liked the sound of Linnea. I'd never paid attention to the meaning before, but now that I know it means 'twinflower,' I could easily see these two names paired together without being too obvious for twins.
