I wonder how many people will realise that Sally started off as a nn for Sarah. Sadie isn't used where I live so I can't form an opinion, but I do vastly prefer Sally to Sarah.

I could find it in my heart, just, to approve of naming twin girls Marian and Marina, but really only as mns. Or, what about one mn and one fn: Alice Marian and Marina Clare? Joanna Marian and Marina Jane? Or matching meanings: Erica and Heather? Deborah and Melissa? Somewhat more subtle than Sadie and Sally!
