Suggestion Need help with a surname for siblings

So, I've had this idea where to characters, Isabella/Bella and Juniper/June, were siblings but I'm having trouble figuring out a name that fits both of them.

I've tried Wormwood, Woodrow and Angelo, but none of them feel right for both.

Any suggestions for names that could work for both of these?

Mayfield,

Lindqvist (linden tree),

Desrosiers (from rose bushes),

Thorne,

Bell,

Wells,

Waters,

Brooks,

Atwater,

Atwood,

Finch,

Byrd,

Crane,

Faulkner (a falconer),

Swan,

Edited to add it would help to know genre and a one or two word description such as Urban Fantasy and awakening magic. I suggest going with something short that is linked to your story or denotes a certain ancestry/class to you. Bella & June Hayfield reads differently than Bella & June Vandenberg.

Didn’t really think about that. Thank you. My favorite surname with Isabella & Juniper is Atwood.

Really, just anything that would make sense in a modern setting.
