Both names are gorgeous, but NOT NOT NOT for twins!

Hannah is a pretty name, but it's way too popular for my tastes. I would definitely use the spelling Hannah. Hanna doesn't look right to me.

---

As others have said, do not use Hannah and Anna for siblings. They are way too close plus they rhyme, which is all around cutesy and cheesy imo. Use one or the other, but not both.

My favorite spelling is Hana, actually. But out of yours, I like Hannah better. And I'm sorry to say, I think that is a horrible sibset. Twins do not like to rhyme. If you name one Hannah, name the other one Susan, Kelly, Celia, Karen, Myrtle, Angela, Catherine, or Meadow. You may think it's cute, but they will not. Keep in mind, they will probably end up in the same classroom, and they already share a last name.

You have asked about Hannah and Anna as sisters before and I still think its awful

WHAT?! NO!!!! please, be kind.

---

I prefer Hannah or Hana.

---

What about Hannah Elizabeth and Erika Charlotte?

I prefer Hannah.

---

I think Anna Katherine and Hannah Elizabeth are very nice but too close for a sibset

---

What about Anna Katherine and Hazel Elizabeth
or Adele Katherine and Hannah Elizabeth or something like that.

I'd really recommend...

Not naming twins Anna and Hannah. My cousin has a sister named Anna and a newborn named Hannah and we're already confused--doing that with twins would, I think, lead to utter chaos. Besides, twins warrant seperate names and identities since they have to share everything else.

I think Hannah is nice albeit too popular for my taste. I wouldn't use Hannah and Anna though. Besides the fact they rhyme they're essentially the same name.

Hannah / Hanna and Anna would--and I'm sure I'm just repeating most responses to your post when I say this--not be good names for twins. It just doesn't work. Personally I don't care for rhyming twin names, but this is even worse because they're practically the same name.

---

If you want to go cutesy for twins, your top names list leaves you with some better options. You could always do:

---

Anna and Autumn
Hannah and Hayley
Emily and Elizabeth
Emma and Erika
Catherine and Charlotte

---

Or whatever combination of names that start with the same letter. If you're willing to branch out there are other combinations, some a bit less obvious and some just as cutesy twinsy. Like:

---

Anna and Arden
Anna and Abigail
Anna and Astrid
Anna and Ava
Anna and Amity

---

Hannah and Helena
Hannah and Holly
Hannah and Holda
Hannah and Heather
Hannah and Hyacinth

I think Hannah is better because backwards or frontwards, it's spelt the same! I think Hannah and Anna are horrible names for twins! Name them something that doesn't rhyme! I think a good middle name is Natalia (for Hannah)! Even though it's not on the list, it's awesome. I think Anna Rose is good for Anna.

No, Hanna and Anna would not be good names for twin girls. If you use one, you may not use the other--the unspoken rules of good taste say so.

Array

PLEASE don't

Hannah and Anna is terrible. The names themselves are beautiful, but Hannah is Anna with an H on both ends.

Please, don't m

---

They're forms of each other. This is like Mary and Marie for twins. It's lame and cheesy and the rhyme aspect is just too cutesy. This is close to the top of my list of things NOT to name siblings, let alone twins.

---

On their own merits, I'd take Anna over both, but Hannah over Hanna.
Anna Katherine or Hannah Elizabeth would be nice, just not in the same household.

Hannah is better. Otherwise it looks like you forgot to add the "h" at the end and it looks imcomplete.

---

I hate rhyming names for twins or even in sib sets. It might be cute when they are little but looks ridiculous when they are grown up.

---

Some middles names:

---

Hannah Paige
Hannah Caroline
Hannah Elizabeth
Hannah Isobel
Hannah Imogen
Hannah Grace
Hannah Francesca

---

Anna Carly
Anna Ruth
Anna Melody
Anna Kennedy
Anna Lucille
Anna Elaine
Anna Josephine

i dont really care for the rhyming of Anna and Hanna if they are going to be siblings. i prefer Hanna though.

I prefer Hannah, and I think rhyming names for twins should be some sorta crime.
