I'm pretty sure both Rosie and Milly and the full names. It's become quite popular in the last few years. To me, though, they don't sound complete. Also, I can't imagine a woman called Milly, or even a teenager.

I like Ebony but Pearl just doesn't feel like a name to me. I know what you mean though, I can't decide if I like the theme/contradiction thing either.

I agree, I like the Amelia, William and Theo sibset too. Such lovely names and they go so well together.

I agree about the sibset thing, but i do prefer Annabel, Caitlin & Elliot. I wouldnt mind naming my children those names :-)

I think Pearl and Ebony have really strong connotations for me. Pearl reminds me of a girl I went to HS with and old ladies who wear pulled wool sweaters with embroiered beads on the shoulders (lol). Ebony seems like the name of an exotic model who looks really good in bright orange. hehe.

My grandma's name is Mildred, and she's gone by Milly her whole life. It works for her.
