Pregnant with twins.. &In need of so much baby naming help!

My thing is now- Parents have a hard enough time picking a name for their child.. And I'm responsible for two! And their name is something they'll have for their whole life I don't want to ruin it for them by giving them terrible names that will follow them FOREVER. I honestly can't handle the stress..
Anyway, it's a little girl and a little boy [Squee! Yay!] and I do have names that I think I like.. But I don't know if they're appropriate and will age well.. I don't want them to go and apply for a job someday and the employer be like "Wow, what a name. His/her mother must hate them."
Anyway, I searched the web in hopes to find help from expert baby namers.. And I hope I came to the right place!
Names currently on the list:
Aribella Kate & Princeton Kale
^The names I like as of now.
Victoria Elizabeth & Vincent Alexander
^The names Thomas likes.
Thomas really likes names that match but are not too matchy. Especially names that start with the same letter, I, on the other hand, have no idea what kind of names I like. I have just loved the names Princeton & Aribella for a while. [Like, before I got pregnant and I wrote up two lists of name for my aunt durring her pregnancy.] And then I just added middle names starting with the same letter that also had the same number of letters..
Anyway, I'd like to know what you think of our names.. But also DESPRITELY want suggestions!
Thank you in advance,
Jocelyn & Thomas<3

I kinda think Victoria Elizabeth & Vincent Alexander are kinda pompous (sorry Thomas) and I personally do not like Victoria. It seems to common. Vincent I like,but not Alexander. (But my opinion doesn't matter) I like your pick for the girl!!! But maybe for the boy you could find a "A" name to compromise?

Victoria and Elizabeth are both names I love as a mn, but I like Vincent Alexander.
Some more pairing suggestions might be...
Matthew Robert and Mikenna Grace/Kayte (same fi, different mi)
Malachi/Malakai "Kai" James and Jordana (pronounced Jor-dan-ah or Jor-day-nah) "Dana" Maree/Marie (f and m i switched)
Andrew Vincent and Ariana Victoria (same fi, same mi)
Do you like any? would you like more?

For example, Aribella is very pretty, but I would spell it Arabella because that is the more usual spelling. If you spell it Aribella, then you'd have to correct people and say "it's Aribella with an I", which could be a pain. I would always go with the most common spelling. Princeton is not really my style, but it's okay.
Maybe you could compromise with your boyfriend by each choosing one name? Or you could choose first names and he could choose middle names. For example, Victoria Kate and Princeton Alexander.

We're still very undecided... But atleast we have a few more names to add to our list!(:
Love Matthew & Mikenna!(: [Although, I prefer the spelling Mackenna(:]
Also, I actually thought Aribella was the spelling of that name.. >.> I do definitely love the spelling Arabella better, though(:
Anyway, Thomas' mom was giving me loads & loads of name suggestions [She's VERY excited. lol(:] and one that especially stuck was Liam & Julia. I though it was so cute. Opinions? &What about middle names?
Maybe Liam Parker? Liam Andrew? Liam _____? Julia Paige? Julia _____?
Also, I would definitely love to be able to honor Thomas by naming his son after him.. So any suggestions about a girls name that would pair well with Theodore Thomaswould be most appreciated(:

If you switched around your names a bit... You could get Arabella and Alexander, which would satisfy both you and your boyfriend. They're both strong and awesome names too, with tons of nickname potential.
Just a suggestion
If not, you could do Liam Alexander, which flows well together and Juliet Arabella (instead of Julia) so then you have matching names. But I wouldn't use Arabella as a middle name for Julia.
For Julia, you could do... Julia Annabel, Julia Alice or Julia Aveline. Or you could use your mother's name, or your boyfriend's mother's name. as her middle name. That kind of makes everything easier
Anyways, hope it helped and good luck!!

Victoria Elizabeth and Vincent Alexander. Hmm. Victoria and Vincent are related (the come from the same Latin verb, vincere, which means "to conquer"), so I would avoid using them together. Also, Victoria doesn't flow with Elizabeth.
