My husband and I have decided not to share any of the names we are thinking about with family or friends for a while. We are expecting twin girls in Feb. I would love to share a few names and just get a little bit of honest feedback since I am not getting any opinions from anyone else.
We have chosen 3 sets of names.
1. Ivy and Reagan
2. Monet and Eden
3. Lydia and Grace

Lydia and Grace are beautiful! The rest (except for Eden) aren't really my style.

I'd rearrange your pairs.. here, in the order I like them!
1. Ivy & Lydia
2. Eden & Grace
3. Reagan & Monet

I absolutely, utterly adore both Ivy & Lydia and think they both have a hip feel to them. Sweetly old fashioned and jazzy feeling Ivy doesn't pair very well with the unisex Reagan. (I loathe that ex president too). The unisex Monet doesn't mesh with Eden, who's feminine & a biblical place name to boot. Lydia & Grace almost pair to me, but Grace is a bit more charming and a lot less "hip" to me while Lydia once again, is sweetly old fashioned yet jazzy feeling.

I think sisters named Ivy & Lydia will both feel like they have a name similar in feel to their sister's name and neither girl will feel as if she got "gypped".
Twins have enough competition between them, why give them another reason for rivalry?

Ivy & Lydia GMV!

1. Ivy and Reagan ~ Reagan isn't feminine enough with Ivy
2. Monet and Eden ~ Monet isn't feminine enough with Eden
3. Lydia and Grace ~ my choice, of the three

What about Ivy and Eden? Those are my favorite two together. Wdyt?

Good Luck

I like the names you are choosing from. I also think you are wise not to share the names with people IRL! Here are my favorites: Monet and Eden from your matches. BUT, I really like Ivy and Eden together! Monet is pretty but a little "out there' for me and Reagan is too unisex with the other choices. Lydia and Grace are very common these days.
