While
Olivia Rose is popular, it is popular for a reason, since it is a very lovely sounding name.
I agree with the other comments about
Lily and
Beth being too much alike since both names are nick names for
Elizabeth. It is like naming your kid
Elizabeth Elizabeth!
What about naming your child
Elizabeth instead with a different middle name. You could call her
Lily as a nick name.
What about
Elizabeth Violet - it seems like it could be your style - although I'm hesitant to presume what names fit other's styles.
While I don't like themey first names, like naming twins
Rose and
Violet, I think themey middle names are ok.
Olivia Rose and
Elizabeth Violet are very pretty IMO.
Of course then you could have nick names that are a little too similar -
Liv and
Lily. Normally I don’t like twins to have similar names, but in this case, since they’re only nick names, I actually kind of like the idea. Because you have the flexibility to be themey, but you are not tied to the theme if it seems silly after a while.
And because of Elizabeth’s versatility you could always use another nick name for
Elizabeth. I like,
Elise,
Elsie, and
Bess.
You could have:
Liv and
EliseLiv and
Elsie Liv and
Bess - my personal favorite
Or you could use any of the other countless nick names for
Elizabeth, like
Beth.
