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

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

I see you completely ignored my suggestion

Or, if you really don't like Chipping & In, you could always go with B1 & B2

@ChippingInNeedsSleepAndCoffee

Christ on a bike - if you can't pick something from all of these posts you should probably hand the twins over to me at birth Grin

Frankly - you cannot go far wrong with Chipping & In Grin

Well it's not just one name is it?!
There are TWO! and I need three combos innit?!?
and they sort of have to go with DS1 and DS2's name (and not over-alliterate)
SO many things to consider

One word of advice: do try saying both names, fast, both ways round. Does it work? Or will you end up, like friends of ours, with irritated twins known to all as Polly-and-Hoppy?

I have twins too.

The one thing you may like to consider is to give the 1st born twin a name further down on the alphabet.
So you know, the 2nd born twin is called first (obviously when called alphabetically).
Just so they're not always 2nd IYKWIM.
I did this but have no intention of telling them, ever.
