We found out we are having twin girls. So exciting
We knew all along that we both loved Lily and it was the one name we agreed on. I love the name Nora and mentioned it a few times. Tonight, my husband called the twins Lily and Nora and said he loves it. So here is what we are thinking (but I'm still less than 17 weeks so it's not final just yet). Thoughts?!
I will say that I prefer longer full names with the names above as nicknames. For example Lillian Mae / Elizabeth Mae and Eleanor Grace.
I'm exactly the same. If it were me, I'd go with Lillian and Eleanor but call them Lily and Nora. I know slot of people are the opposite and say to nsme them what you intend to call them. Either way, I like both your names.
I'm fine with Nora but Lily seems like a little girl and I wouldn't love it on a 30 year old woman. I prefer Lillian.
I also agree with PP about the middle names being generic. DH wanted to use my middle name (given from my grandmother to me also) for DD and I don't love it because it's so blah, but it's sentimental. This time he suggested Marie and I said no. I'm not doing it again. No filler name this time for us. But that's just my opinion.
The names do flow nicely.
