Sister for Edison
This is for a story. I need a name for a sister (either twin or younger sister) of a boy named Edison. Unsure of the last name. They will be teenagers in present-day USA. I would like it if the sister is also named after a famous scientist or inventor, as Edison is named after Thomas Edison, but it's not compulsory.
My ideas so far have been Ada (after Ada Lovelace, but I'm not sure it sounds so good paired with Edison), Sydney (I like it with Edison but it's not a scientist name), and Alana (after Alan Turing, but there is another character named Aleksei whose name I would have to change as it's too close to Alana). Any suggestions?

Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child,

Listen to the SHOULDN'TS

Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me—

ADA, 2nd choice Alana
I think Ada fits nicely
