My friend had twins
Two girls, Isla and Layla, they join big sisters Ella and Ariana.

I like both names, but I don't like the fact they (nearly) rhyme.

The 4 seem to fit together, but I don’t like Isla at all and think it is too matchy to be twins with Layla since the end sounds the same and is too close to Ella.

Ella, Isla and Layla do not pass the shout-across-the-house test. There’s no way they’ll know who’s being called without confirmation. I’m kind of shocked that Ariana wasn’t named Lila or something instead. (Pleasantly.)They’re fine names, but there’s nothing really special about them. And the three similar ones together sound a bit like baby babble. I’m sure they’re all very sweet little girls, though. Are the twins and Mama doing okay?

Wow, those are some vowel heavy names. Isla and Ella in the same set seems really silly.

Both insubstantial, and I don't care for the identical endings for twins.

Too many -las im this family!My opinion of these names is similar to Mrs. Banks' opinion of men in Mary Poppins: though I adore them individually, as a group they're rather stupid

Omg... The Mary popping thing seriously touched my heart... That's awesome that SOMEBODY still remembers that movie!! I need friends who know good movies, and remember good soundtracks...

Shoulder to shoulder into the fray
Our daughters daughters will adore use
And they'll sing in grateful chorus...
Well done, Sister Suffregette!!!"

Aww, that's a super cute and simple sibset. I think Ella is a bit common compared to the rest of them, but it's still fine.

All nice names individually, but Isla and Ella are waaay too similar. Layla to a lesser extent, as well. I'm seeing a lot of confusion in their future..
