Hadassah is gorgeous
I know a little Hadassah Josephine who was born just last May. I was soooo happy when I heard what they named her. :-)
If I'm restricted in using only names from your list for the combinations, this would be my dream team:
Hadassah Melody, Esther Mercy, Malachi Jonas and Tobias Eli.
If I'm allowed to wonder off the ranch:
Hadassah Judith, Esther Miriam, Malachi Reuel and Tobias Nathaniel.

Elias nn Eli and Cian
Lydia and Esther
Lydia and Elias nn Eli
For some reason Cian doesn't seem to go with the other names so I almost suggested Elias and Aaron for bb twins. Please don't spell Cian as Kian it looks so ugly. I also don't like a nickname for Cian.
The only nicknames on your list I can stand are Eli for Elias (even though I'd prefer just Eli or just Elias with no nn), Tobias nn Toby, Shiloh nn Shi and Lydia nn Lyddie.
I wonder why you need a nickname for every name ? Essie is terrible, in my opinion and Esther is pretty. So why destroy a lovely name like Esther by calling her Essie ? Lyddie for Lydia is ok but Lydia also doesn't need a nn as it's perfect on its own. I mean I can understand people using nicknames for long names like Anastasia or Alexandria but otherwise it's so not necessary.
But if you really love nn's so much:
Aaron - Ari, Ron or Ronnie. I rather like Ron since Harry Potter.
Hosea - you could get nn's out of this one but I wouldn't force it. This is a no nickname name to me.
Lydia and Esther
Lydia and Elias nn Eli

Tobias is really nice; it's different. iam not crazy about the girl's names though, sorry.
G/G: Lydia and Ella
G/B: Lydia and Elias or Ella and Micah
B/B: Micah and Elias
Combos for girls:
Lydia Melody
Ella Mercy
Combos for boys:
Micah Tobias
Elias Malachi
Personally, I'd only use the nn 'Eli' with these names, and only occasionally. The others don't really seem to need nicknames at all, and I like them better as is.
