Need help.

I need some name suggestions for two characters.

Setting is 1899, England.

First character: Female. Eighteen years old. Sort of muddy red hair - like wet terra cotta. Golden brown eyes. Slightly on the heavy side.. Rounded face. Very pale. Small yet sharp, penetrating eyes. Fiesty, spirited, temperamental, headstrong, yet still very good-natured. Comes from upper class society.

Second character: Female. Eighteen years old. White blonde, flowy hair, down to her waist. Large pale blue eyes. Petite and thin. Pretty and seraphim-like. Very calm and collected, yet strong-willed. Incredibly intelligent. Her appearance is very delicate and frail but she has a strong figure and can be very intimidating at the best of times. She comes from very low class society. Her father is an artist.

Any suggestions at all would be wonderful. Please keep in mind the time, place, and their positions in society.

The first names that came to mind were Colleen for the first character and Kayla for the 2nd...not sure that Kayla fits in with the time period though.

I keep coming back to Celeste for your second character. Hestia might be okay for the first one, but I think there's probably something better out there for her.

Amelia, Eliza, Sara, Molly, Emily

Victoria, Cosette, Lila (maybe a nn?), Kirsten

The first one should be Lavinia and the second one Miranda. I can really feel them!

LoL with the exception of the upper class/lower class rankings, and the blonde's WHItE hair and really intelligentness you sound like you described me and my sister exactly.

shes 16 though. with like EXACTLY how you described her but her eyes are green instead of golden brown.
Im 19, dirty blonde blue eyes, but instead of thin and frail, i have a butt and some boobs lol but everything else sounds like me cept im an artist which seems to have sucked out any intelligence i had haha.

my sister is Michelle and I'm Tara but i also like the name Tess or Tessa for the blonde. For the redish-head uhmm how about Victoria, Nicolette, Christine,

1st - Rebecca
2nd - Genevieve

1st - Eleanor or Roberta
2nd - dad is an artist so the name could reflect that. Depends on the type of art. Something nature-y maybe like Lily, Rose, Amaryllis. Mythological themes were also popular so maybe something from there. Persephone was a popular subject of the time. As far as other names, I like Lenora, Helene, and Juliet.

Victorian era names:

#1 - Octavia: An old Roman clan name that was used during the Victorian era. I thought that might work for an upper class girl as they were the most educated class, so they probably learned about Roman history.

#2 - Pearl: I thought this would work because it's simple (you don't really have to be too educated to know of a pearl) and pretty (perhaps the lower class wanted to give their daughter the air of money/hoped for her future). It's also artistic-like. The name was used mostly in the late Victorian era and was popular in 1900. Also works with pale/white and pretty way your character is described.
