Charlotte - I can't use Charlotte it's my cousin's name.
Hannah Violet - I quite like this one.
Ruth - NMS.
Isabel Lucy - I like but I feel Lucy is too close to Louise (My daughter's second name)
Alexandra - I'm not sure on this one I'v never really liked Alexandra.
Patricia - Too old fashioned for me.
Emily - I like but I'm unsure on Emily.
Victoria/Sophia/Sophie - Are my daughter's 2 best friends names.
Stella Edith - I quite like this one.

Any you like? My favourite's are Isabel Lucy and Millie Alexandra though I'd prefer Milly - I don't like Milly. Millie is a more common spelling in the UK so it's more known.

My sister is Helen Lucy and I am Katie Louise. It's never been a problem, so I think Amy Louise and Isabel Lucy would be fine. Maybe you're overthinking this a bit?

I'm not over thinking it.

My children go by both there names and since my daughters is hyphenated she is frequently called Amy-Louise and NN'd LouLou most of the time. So as we use both names Amy might get confused when she hears the Lou part and think I'm talking to her.

Just since it's relevant: my name is Charlotte and my brother's name is Charles. First names. And until he was an adult, he went by Charlie. It was only ever a problem when someone was calling one of us from across the house and both of us would answer.

That sounds confusing. - My cousin goes by Charlie/Char so I know what you mean.

It is/was kind of confusing. We'd also get mail only addressed to our first initial followed by our last name from time to time, and sometimes we'd have to open it to figure out who it was for. But that could happen in any family with two or more with the same initials (my husband's, for example, where all four siblings names' begin with 'K'); we were just the only two C-names out of eight children.

I can imagine that being horrible. My name was going to be Tamsin and with my son being Thomas I'm glad it's not that would be confusing when it came to mail.
