Boy/Girl Twin Names

[two-roads.livejournal.com]

My husband and I are expecting boy/girl twins next spring. We have a 2-year-old named Noah.

We've had the name "Adam" picked for our second boy for a very long time. My brother's name is Adam and he will also be the babies' godfather. It's the girl's name we're stuck on.

My husband's family is Italian/Sicilian, so we've been having some fun looking for Italian names. We also added a couple that don't really go with the rest, but we like them. For example, Aurora - which was our choice for our first child if he had been a girl. We also really like Audrey.

I'd like to stay away from names that are very popular, so I'm a bit worried about some of these names. I should also mention that I'm not a fan of cutesy matching twin names, so a couple of the names are lower on my list because of how cheesy they sound with Adam... (Adam and Audrey, for example, though I love the name Audrey).

What do you think?

another thing to consider: I've heard Adam nn'd to Addy & Audrey nn'd to Auddy which are similar. I'm not saying YOU would necessarily do it but it could happen.

Personally I like (in this order) Gianna, Lucia & Sofia. :)
