Oh... just going to say this now then Grin we won't mix them up, we have both decided that we like the way they sound together the way they are (when calling) we have been practicing for 3 months Grin

Bethan and Gregor. I don't like Gregory so much.

If it must be one of the two, Bethan and Gregor (because I think the repeated 'y' would be twee) BUT I far prefer Bethan and Gregory. Sorry!

Bethany and Gregory sounds silly, as if you're rhyming them on purpose.

Gregor sounds a bit harsh without the y, somehow. I much prefer Gregory.

Gregor definitely - so that means Bethan too :-)

Bethan and Gregor, by a country mile. I know a little Gregor - he's lovely. Both great names actually OP.

"please can you just decide between the 2 options?"

Can't you just decide, OP?! Wink

The problem with MN is that people don't always do what they're told, some of us prefer to widen our options Smile

Nope. Bethany and Gregor are the better names. Sorry.

I prefer both with the y.

Of your two options definitely Bethan and Gregor. Both with the matching 'y' does sound twee IMO. I prefer Bethany and Gregor as a pair though.

Whatever you do they may be Beth and Greg by teens though which are nice too.

Of your pairings I'd go for Bethan and Gregor.

But I really prefer Bethany and Gregor. Sorry!

YY Beth and Greg are good names Smile
Maybe pick the two names you like best as stand-alone names? Because although the twins will grow up together, they will live separately as adults, and the names won't be used together anything like as often as they will be used individually.

Definitely not Bethany and Gregory - too matchy matchy! Any other combination is nice, although I personally prefer Gregory to Gregor.
