Just some recent names.

My new baby cousin- Bella Ann, she was going to be Jade Elizabeth.

A girl I know is having twin girls at the end of Feb/beginning of March, she has decided to name them Chloe Mae and Zoee Rae. Yes, two E's.

Thoughts on all. I HATE the twin names.

The twins are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too matchy.

[luvahs.livejournal.com]

Very much so.

TWINS ARE INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE, NOT A SET. Give them names like you (generic you in all this) would any other siblings. You wouldn't name one child Chloe Mae and then three years later name her young sister Zoe Rae, so don't do it to twins.

I hate Bella (as a nickname and especially as a given name). It's so Twilight-y to me. I think Jade Elizabeth is much nicer (even if I hate Jade).

Although I knew a set of twins growing up named Arlene and Carlene, whose older sister was Jolene and their mother was Darlene. So maybe that goes against my theory.

I like Bella Ann. And Jade Elizabeth is pretty also, but i don't like the twins names =\

individually they are okay, but not together. i think they'll be resentful when they get older lol

i HATE bella and all of its extended versions. i love isabel and annabelle, but hesitate to use them for fear of them ever being called belle or bella. HATE it.

The twins names are way too matchy. I don't think names should rhyme, ever! I like it when twins names compliment each other though...but not piggyback each other!

zoee and chloe? Seriously? :( How bout just suggesting a slight change to Cleo and Zoee... much, much better in my opinion.

HAHA. Oh my god, when I was in high school my BFF and I's names for French class were Chloe and Zoe. Of course, we both knew it was a big joke and we did it to confuse the teacher! Actually naming children Chloe Mae and Zoee Rae should be illegal.

Bella Ann is...better, but both names seem incomplete. I like Bella much more than Jade, but it seems like it should be short for Isobella or something. Is she a twilight fan, by chance? ;) And I always prefer Anne to Ann, so the whole name just feels like it is missing something.

HAHA, funny you should say it should be illegal, i said her naming rights should be taken from her!

She told me she got the name from the book, so yes.

I like Bella, but Ann is kind of boring. I would have liked Bella Jade or Bella Elizabeth better.

The twins names are awful. :(
