Andromeda is pretty, but I much prefer Xanthia (one of my favorite names) to Xanthe.Annika is a stunning name, and so is Linnea; they suit each other beautifully.Lacie isn't a bad spelling, but I prefer Lacey. Roxy isn't bad either, but I prefer the spelling Roxie.Twila and Zenobia aren't bad together, but they're just nms, I'm really sorry.I don't care for Ariston or Callisto, I'm really sorry. I like the name Casper, but Wilbur doesn't sit well with me for some reason, no offense!Emeric is a handsome name, and I don't detest Lyle.Finnian and Toby are probably my favorite from your "Two boys" list!I'm sorry, but Ajax and Kalliope aren't my cup of tea, though I definitely appreciate them!Alexiana is pretty, though I'd prefer Alexa, Alexina, Alexandra, or Alexis. Phineas is a cool name, and maybe if I met one, I wouldn't call it guilty-pleasure.Annabeth is my favorite name on this list; it's gorgeous and very underrated! Florian is also very handsome and amazing...this sibset is my favorite!Linus isn't a bad name, I just think too much of the Charlie Brown character. Serafina is a really gorgeous and underappreciated name, and I also love Seraphina.
They are all good, just not my style
The pairs I like/love are the following:Two girls:Andromeda & XantheTwo boys:Ariston & Callisto
Finnian & TobyOne girl, one boy:Annabeth & Florian
Linus & Serafina
Some of these sound too much like pets, mainly because one of the names (Toby, Wilbur, Roxie) sounds like a pet.
Others are just too mythical-fanficky.And Ajax will always be a cleanser to me.
I've known humans and no pets named Toby and Roxy, for what it's worth. Wilbur doesn't feel like a pet name.
I don't have any personal associations with pets for any of these names!
My favourite names here are Linnea, Roxy, Callisto, Caspar, Toby, Kalliope, Florian and Serafina. The sets I like best are:
Annika and Linnea (a little rhymey but I think it works very well)
Ariston and Callisto
Finnian and Toby
Linus and Serafina
Lots of good choices!
