Boy Girl Twin Names

52 replies

GinAndLemon · 03/04/2016 16:24

We are due boy girl twins VERY soon. I am lucky that DH is easy going on this and loves all names on my lists. I am so indecisive and want them to sound good together but not too obviously matching names. Here are my lists in no particular order. Would love opinions on names individually and also suggestions of boy-girl pairings. Middle names will be the same for both, a family name, non negotiable and will go with anything, sort of like an add-on to our surname.

GIRLS
Daisy
Violet
Nina
Eliza
Lucinda
Marnie
Tatiana
Frances
Plum
Mariella
Genevieve

BOYS
Ludo
Spencer
Sidney
Francis
Jesse
Jude

Veyr much my personal opinion, but the only boys name I like from your list is Jude. I like most of the girls names though, but personally i'd go with Jude and Violet, or Jude and Daisy.

Marnie and Jude.

Is plum an autocorrect?

I like Jude and Violet as said above. Plum is awful....often used as an insult for someone who's a div!x

My mum was a Plum and she pulled it off brilliantly. I know it's bold so it's great to get honest opinions! X

I like Marnie too. Jude is nice but St Jude is the patron saint of lost causes and hopeless cases which would put me off a bit!

What about Stanley? I love Stanley!

I have boy girl twins and one is called Eliza, the other has Stanley as a middle name!

I think Eliza would go well with Jude or Francis or maybe Frankyln (nn Frank for both?)

Shame about Stanley as Stanley and Violet are fabulous names :)

I'm not keen on any of the boys names, except Sidney so perhaps Sidney and Violet
As you can guess I like Violet. I have never heard of Plum as a name, but I do like it is it short for something else?
