TWIN BOYS

Maybe as you are having twins 2 single syllable names would make things easier when they are toddlers and older, or single syllable nick names. I guess you will probably be saying "x and y ..." a lot so you will then only have 3 syllables to manage in total if they are single syllable names. This might just be me though, I like simple names and I know most people have at least 2 syllables. Congratulations :)

My suggestion of other names would be Zack and Finn

Id go for Harry and Tom (rather than Tommy)

Noah & Evan is lovely . I have twin boys myself n the names do have to somehow match tho not in a Jaden/Kaden manner! Fantastic dilemma to have, enjoy.

Don't like any of those combinations, sorry. Some of them are really matchy, matchy.
Noah and Dylan sounds fine, or Noah and Louie, or Noah and Matthew.

Matthew and Harry sound lovely together and don't sound matchy at the same time.

Evan, Zachary and Luke are all lovely names. One is DS2 name.
Matthew and Harry are ok but loads about.
Dislike the others, particularly Noah and Alfie. Don't get the pairing up thing tbh.

Noah and Evan. Lovely names :)

I like Dylan and Ethan but I actually prefer the middle names! Luke and Jake would be cute!

I like Evan and Noah.

We have twin boys and we chose names based on what we liked but also based on what they sounded like together - we had to say no to Alex and Fergus because it made us think of Alex Ferguson!

Congrats OP, twins are super

Am sorry if it came across as unfair - honestly wasn't the intention but maybe I was being thoughtless.

I think all of the names are great and I think all of them could be paired together with the exception of Evan and Ethan which would be a bit too similar for me. I just wanted to express that I didn't see why OP couldn't have a Matthew and a Harry. My pair are a 70s classic with granny chic combo (think Christopher and Ivy or Caroline and Stanley) and it's never crossed my mind that this is a problem.

Anyway, OP enjoy the crazy world of twins!

I think some of you are being a bit unfair to the OP. It's not like she is calling them Leo and Theo. Most people pick names that 'go' with sibling names.
The only pairing I would say was remotely matchy is Evan and Noah because of the film Evan Almighty.

I wouldn't do pairs,pick two favourite names.
I like Evan, Matthew, Zachary and Dylan.

Matthew Jake and Harry Luke are lovely names.

As babies says you've got to remember that the cutie baby twins stage is short lived. Teens will not thank you for matching their names.

Hope you're feeling OK

Matthew & Zachary from your lists.

I have an Evan. Lovely name. I think it's quite different and haven't found it to be too popular which is what Iike. So on that basis I would go maybe Evan & Zachary. My youngest boy is Teddy. I think that goes well too.

Good luck.

I would swap them about and have Matthew Jake and Noah Luke , if your concern is that one has a long name and one short , Matthew becomes Matt and Noah stays as Noah .

Another twin mum here who would advise steering clear of any 'matching set' type names. Seriously, these aren't just babies you're naming, they're school children, teenagers, grown men - they don't want to feel like they're half of a gift pack .

There are 10 quite different names there. I think you need to pick your two favourite individual names, and then work out which middle names go with which. Anything but Ethan and Evan would work together.

I think they're too matchy sound-wise. So I would go for something like Matthew and Ethan.

OP - think you have to choose you favourite name and then the one that goes best with that? Surely Matthew (for example) would go with all your choices? The only 2 I wouldn't pair would be Evan and Ethan.

Sorry to repeat but I don't get the matching thing either. I have twins and we just talked through our favourite boys and girls names. We had four boys names we liked pretty equally and each had a favourite girls name that's the other also liked. Twos DDs would have meant a favourite each and we would have gradually narrowed down the boys if we had two DSs. As it was, DD got my favourite (I did carry and birth them after all ) and we narrowed down to joint favourite for DS.

There names in no way match but they both have names we love.

Obviously your kids so your rules but I'd pick your favourite two and only discount if they rhyme or alliterate.

Matthew and Zachary, sound fab! but i'd also like Noah and Ivan (not Evan).

Alfred and Laurence. So Alfie and Laurie

Alfie Luke and Louis Jake would be lovely

(Prefer Louis spelt with an 's' on the end)

To mix the sets up a bit I also like:

Noah Jake and Dylan Luke
Noah Jake and Harry Luke
Dylan Luke and Harry Jake

I like Dylan and Ethan best.
