Twins! Which combo is nice?

Hi! I'm expecting twins! It's a boy and a girl, and they'll be our first children. For our daughter, we're thinking of the name Tessel. What do you all think of this name? For our son, we're still undecided. We like several names, namely Friso, Jilles, Ward, Rijk, and Ingmar. Which one do you think is the most beautiful? And what would be the cutest combination? I'd love to hear your thoughts! New ideas are also very welcome Thanks!

    I think Tessel is really nice.
    Your boy names aren't really my style, but I'd still go with Friso.

    First thing that comes to mind: Tessel and Morris
    And then:
    Bjarne, Casper, Jasper, Jelmer, Jesper, Jorrit, Lester, Marnik, Marnix, Silvan, Victor, Wietse

    I'm having two girls. I want to name one Djalisa, but which name would fit well with it?

    I think Tessel and Jilles are a lovely combination. Tessel and Ward work well too, but I don’t really like the name Ward (it reminds me of “verward,” which means confused). I quite like Friso too! Other options:
    Tessel and... Koen, Brent, Maurik, Robin, Nils, Siebe, Storm, Floris, Daan, Diede, Vic/Vik, Laurens, Matthijs, Jos, Ruud, Lasse, Sven, Sverre, Jonas

    Nice! I'm a twin mom too!

    Tessel and Ward!

    Friso and Jilles aren't my taste. I like the other names, but I think Ward goes best with Tessel.

    Maybe Jayanna or Jayley

    I really like Tessel and Jilles!!
    Otherwise maybe Flo... (reminds me of Vlieland... Texel and Vlieland go well together) ;-)

    Congratulations on your pregnancy!
    Definitely not Ward. That's "ward" as in hospital ward in English. It's up to you whether you mind that the name sounds very strange abroad. (I wouldn't choose Joke or Lies either, etc.)
    Tessel has a double vowel, just like Jilles. The 'T' sounds harder than the 'J'. Gilles?
    Or Rijk as Ryk. So there's a distinction between the two.
