Help[Opinions] Re: If we have twin girls
in reply to a message by LV51sfan91
Congratulations (: If you don't like Lilian very much, have you tried to negotiate with your husband over slightly different versions, like Lily or Lilia?
The other problem of having twins with one called Lilian is that Lilian sounds like "Lily and.." so if you ever call their names together "Lilian Grace!" it sounds like you're saying "Lily and Grace". Just a thought (:
I don't like Rose and dawn together. Rose Dawn sound terrible to me, almost sickening for a kid. Rose-coloured sunrises are lovely but I'm really not into names that make an image like that.
If you go with Lilian, I think both Vivian and Olivia can't be used. Have you tried saying "Lilian and Vivian" and "Lilian and Olivia"? The first rhymes (and there's nothing more cheesy than rhyming twins) and the second is a tongue-twister.
Brooke Olivia - You may not mind the B.O initials, but what about your kid? Though I had to look up why the initials B.O might be a problem, I think it's worth remembering that this isn't a name you're choosing for yourself. You're choosing it for someone else. Brooke is lovely though, so I don't she why you shouldn't use it with a different middle name. Brooke Luila is really pretty.
Eve Rachel - I love the nickname Evie too. This combo is lovely, very soft and dignified. Eva Rachel flows a little better, I think, but Eve is much nicer than Eva and as you'll rarely be saying first and middle name together I don't think flow is the most important thing.
Grace Luila - This pairing is really, really lovely. The best of all of them, I think.
Hope Rachel - I really don't like hope, or Faith for that matter. Hope and Faith are both totally sappy to me.
Natalie - it's okay, and if you like the meaning, that's one thing. But the sound of this name has always struck me as surprisingly ugly.
And Olivia and Vivian I covered already. Though I will add that I really, really love the name Vivian. It has such a deep velvety sound. And Vivian Lee! Have you been reading "A Tale of Time City" or is this just coincidence? (;
