Looking for inspiration, please name all the twins that you know:

We don't know whether we're having two boys, two girls or boy/girl.
Molly and Huck from West Wing is one possibility
and obviously all gin- based combos also welcomed

So please list the twins you know - would be a massive help.
TIA

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Victoria and Theresa

Or how about Rex and Regina if they're b/g twins?

I don't know that many twins, but the ones I do know/have met are;

Francesca & Natasha

I have the pleasure of having Sophie and Ryan, whos names were picked by ds1 (5 at the time), they would have been Kimberly and Greg if Granny hadn't said to him that there was already a Greg in the family, there is but its dh's cousins son who none of the 3 of us had/have even met! Days later he changed his mind about the first choice names and I'm glad as they fit them perfectly.

I've got twins!!!! I was gonna call them Leon and Luca, but I ended up going with Felix and Reuben. Feel free.....

The only twins I have known personally.

@Reality

William and Harry.

I accidentally called my boys (7 years apart) this. I think you should DEFFO use them for twin boys.

We have this already - DH and DS1
DS1 was going to be Alexander though but he V much wasn't an Alexander.

Accidentally as in I already had Harry and William was going to be Edward William until he was born and very much wasn't an Edward.

Sorted.

KillashandraRee · 12/10/2013 07:46

Please please please if you have boy / girl twins call them Maude & Claude (pronounce in French accent....may involve move to France but I LOVE these names!)

VivaLeThrustBadger · 12/10/2013 07:15

Harry and Joshua

SillyBeardyDaddyman · 12/10/2013 07:12

Olivia m'dear! Long time no chat

I think you should call your twins batman and robin. It works for b/b or b/g! I'm sure that in a few years batman will be a unisex name too, so you could get in early if it's g/g.

Oh, and congratulations!

DaleyBump · 12/10/2013 00:36

I can go one better - I know triplets called Eilidh, Kara and Adam :)

I also know twins called Hannah and Chloe, Leanne and Margaret, Diane and Caroline, Thomas and Josephine... I think there's more but I can't remember.

Good luck!

LillyNotOfTheValley · 12/10/2013 00:34

Percival and Philippa
Isobel and Amelie
Asher and Mabel

CeliaLytton · 12/10/2013 00:23

Jack and Daniel?

(Not gin related but too tired to think of something witty to go with Gordon)

Now you have linked from another thread which is bonkers and will clearly attract weirdos you will be getting all sorts!

TwelveLeggedWalk · 12/10/2013 00:17

What do you THINK you're having?

I had a hunch that I had one girl. With infallible logic I failed to extrapolate that that meant I was probably also having one boy, which is what I had!

So, when mine arrived rather ahead of schedule, I had one girls' name, and absolutely no boys names. Hospital loved me with 'Baby Um...'!
