Nice or weird?

I like that they are different names and go together well.

Are you a fan of Captain Scarlet & The Mysterons?

I'd aim for two names that don't sound like a pair or themed. I would go with Melody (if you like it rather than thinking it goes well with Harmony) and then pick another completely different name. What about Melody and Caroline? Obviously up to you, but if I was having twins I would be very focussed on the idea that I was having two individuals rather than a set.

Oh no, please don't. Seems a bit try-hard.
Besides, my 18 year old neice had pet rats called Melody and Harmony and I thought it was a bit contrived then....

NO NO NO

I went to school with twin girls Faith and Hope and then they really did it, they called the youngest daughter Charity.

Why-oh-why-oh-why

Don't do it!

Def no, too twee together.

KoolAidKid · 16/06/2011 22:06

I like the names individually. But together as twins or siblings they're a bit cheesy.

eeeeeeeeyooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Melody is ok. Bit saccharine. But with Harmony, oh my good God no please no.

So, to sum up. NO

But apologies for being so negative. What about Melody and Romilly. or

Magaly and Romilly.

Magaly and Romilly sound like twins perhaps, but aren't so matchy and they don't go quite so far as to sound like Pandas at the zoo after their highlights done.

crumpet · 16/06/2011 22:03

Durrr - I mean unusual different, obviously they are not the same name!
