Twin names- Cecelia and . . . ?
We are still working on twin names for both genders, but i'm focusing on girls because that's what I'm secretly praying for! The middle names would be for their grandmas, so Catherine and Lynn (or it could be some variation of Lynn-Lynae, Lynette, etc.). We tend to like names that have a slightly vintage feel, buy aren't too 80-year old lady. We also would like both names to have a nickname if possible. We don't want something super popular--aka, Ava why did you get so popular?!?!
We think Cecelia is lovely, but I can't think of a perfect name to go with it that is not too match matchy. Also, I hate the meaning of Cecelia, but I'm trying to get over that!
With those guidelines, what do you think would be the perfect girl names?

Presumably you'd pair Cecilia with Lynn and Catherine with something else. I'd suggest something shorter so the girls have approximately equally lengthened names - you wouldn't want to end up with Io Lynn and Cecilia Catherine as twins. I'd find that odd.
How about:
Iris
Mauve
Isla
Esme
June
Juno
Mae
Posey
