I am writing a story, it is about three generations of a family, based around three central characters.
The first is the grandmother, she is 48 years old, and really wants to be hip and young. At the moment her name is Adelaide Iris nn Addie, but I'm not sure if it really works tbh. She had a daughter at 16, who is the second main character.
Her daughter is into fashion a lot, she is now 32 years old, and works hard to keep her house and her children with her. She is a single mother of three, she gave birth to the oldest when she was 16, and her daughter is now also 16. Her other two children are twin girls, and they are 10. At the moment she is called Rachelle Hope nn Chelle, but it could be better.
The third central character is the daughter's daughter. She is 16, and is working hard at her studies. She is very clever, and loves college. She also adores her little sisters, and longs for a baby of her own. She has a steady boyfriend, but he can let her down sometimes, and all he is really interested in is sex. She doesn't want to end up pregnant, especially as she knows how hard it has been for her mum, but she really loves this guy. At the moment she is called India Grace nn Indy, but I am not sure if that really works for her.
So, I really need opinions/suggestions for the names I have already got, plus suggestions for the twins' names and also Indy's bf.
Thanks in advance

Okay, I've decided on Adelaide Iris for the grandmother and Rachelle Hope for the mother.
What do you think of Gabrielle Rose for the daughter nn Gabby or Elle?
Also, for the twins: Peyton Aaliyah and Taylor Paige?
And for the bf: Seth James?
Thanks in advance

I like Erica and Emily for the twins.
how about Sean or Seth for the Bf.
love the grandmother, and mother's names
Gabrielle Rose is a perfect name i think. goes with the others and i see it has the character you described.

Gabrielle Hallie and Dana is adorable!
Sean is more masculine IMO, I would use it over Seth
