[Opinions] Work Birth Announcements, including 2 sets of twins
WDYT?Holland Charles
Blair Addison
Reese Madelyn and Kennedy Eva (brother Jack)
Samuel Aden and Nathaniel JohnI kind of like Holland Charles. I think of Holland for a girl because of actress Holland Taylor but I actually think it is more masculine. And paired with Charles, it feels strong and intelligent. I like Blair Addison too, against my better judgement. It flows really well and the names really complement each other BUT I don't like 2 unisex names together. Reese Madelyn is adorable, even though I prefer Reese or Rhys for a boy.
Kennedy isn't my favorite. I like this for a boy, and not at all for a girl. Eva is nice. They work as twin names as they both have unisex first names and feminine middle names. I don't like Jack and Kennedy as siblings though.Samuel Aden and Nathaniel John - I LOVE! Both flow well and all the names complement each other. Samuel and Nathaniel both end in the same sound but I don't think they are too twinny as the names have different syllabules and the nicknames aren't alike at all.

Holland Charles - Holland is an odd choice for a first name. I don't think I like it. Charles Holland would have been cool.Blair Addison - I hate this kind of name.Reese Madelyn and Kennedy Eva - I don't like Reese on a girl, but Reese Madelyn sounds all right. Kennedy Eva is awful.Samuel Aden and Nathaniel John - The combos themselves are nice, but I think Samuel and Nathaniel are too rhymey together. If they are called Sam and Nate it isn't so bad, I guess.

Kim Holland is the name of a Dutch pornstar. Yeah... so... no. And I think people should stop naming their kids after (parts of) countries. Charles is meh, and it also doesn't combine well with Holland.Blair sounds very upperclass, a bit snobby. Addison is okay, it does make for a nice combo.Reese is pretty, Madelyn is so-so, because it's a bit overused. Kennedy is okay. I just don't like the fact it's such a famous surname. Eva is okay. Jack is awesome!
The combos are good.Samuel - I'm not into a lot of Biblical names. The nickname Sam is adorable. Aden is nice, I prefer it spelled Aiden, though. Nathaniel - again, the Biblical names thing. John is a bit too common, imo, so I hope it's honouring. The combos are alright, but I don't like the fact that both names end in -el. It's too matchy.

Holland Charles - I see Holland as a little girl, and don't think Charles would suit it well as a mn.
Blair Addison - I dislike both names because they're trendy imo.
Reese Madelyn and Kennedy Eva (brother Jack) - Such wonderful names! But ruined by Kennedy. Jack Kennedy? *eye roll inserted*
Samuel Aden and Nathaniel John - I think these are really nice, strong, masculine names that go well together!

Holland Charles is alright. It doesn't please me, but it doesn't make me lose all faith in humanity either. Blair Addison is confusing. I have no idea whether the combo belongs to a boy or a girl. I'm hoping boy, but I suspect it belongs to a girl. Reese Madelyn is just plain awful. Kennedy Eva is terrible as well, despite Eva being a wonderful name. Jack is a sweet name.Samuel and Nathaniel seem overwhelmingly religious together. Aden is awful. Nathaniel John is a solid combo though.
