Really stuck on boys names - done them to death with Ds1 and 2. Inspire me please!

I'm expecting twins in the summer, boy / girl.

We can think of lots of girls names, no problem, but we're really struggling with boys names.

It feels like we've done boys names to death already, and we're going over the same old ground, all names we rejected for DS1 and 2. They are Jasper and Edward (Ed) to give you an idea of our taste.

I really like Dominic but DH is having none of it. We're now drawing a blank.

Any ideas?

Otis is good too. I will add to the list for DH's perusal.

Pelvic floor holding up well for now - could be a different story in 6 months time! Grin

Otis. You must call him Otis.

Jasper, Ed, Clara* and Otis.

A gorgeous set of names.

*my favourite of your girls names.

PS - Twins! Brave lady! How is your pelvic floor these days? Grin

Whipme - your DH must be psycis - I work for Debenhams! Shall I call DS3 John (Rocha) or Matthew (Williamson)???

Have a ex called Tristan so that's a bit weird.

Thanks all - it's getting my brain ticking over.....

Larissa with Lara for short is very nice. Also like Clara, Lauren, Natasha from your girls' list (or how about Cara, Sara or Zara?)
