Names for B/G twins

37 replies

feelinginthedark · 20/05/2018 21:54

We are calling boy twin Luke as it is a family name for DH. We have two older DDs with two syllable names both with a 'c' in them (like Darcey but not) and would like a girl twin's name along similar lines, but the ones we like I'm not sure go all that well with Luke, specifically:

Luke and
Anna (but think Luke and Anna together sound a bit bleak and Amish?)
Maisie
Camilla known as Milly
Hazel (DH not keen)

Any other ideas? Thanks!

There are names like Elva which are unusual these days

Luke and Anna are lovely! it doesn't matter what the initials are. Nobody ever writes down their DC initials.

redmini4 · 30/05/2018 21:38

Anna is nice and Esme from your other list. I don't think having the LA initials is too big a deal. I know families where the DC all have the same initial.

Luke and Camilla work well, I think.

Thanks for all the opinions - very helpful!

I do like Luke and Anna. Only thing is the first letter of our DDs names are L and A too... so we'd have four kids whose initials spell LA LA Confused

Thoughts??

Ivy is my favourite girls name atm but I think its about to explode in popularity. I’ve heard of 2 little Ivys lately and we’re not even in a trendy part of the country.

Luke and Lacey stands out to me.

Gunpowder · 20/05/2018 22:45

No name advice but I’ve got b/g twins and they are fab. Good luck villanous and OP!

bookmum08 · 20/05/2018 22:44

(unless you actually like the name Topsy then I'm not joking......)

bookmum08 · 20/05/2018 22:43

Topsy. As in Topsy and Tim. I know a few guys called Tim but I have never met a Topsy!!
(I am joking)

villainousbroodmare · 20/05/2018 22:38

Oh no, didn't mean to demolish them quite so comprehensively Blush... Sybil is lovely. Ivy is a plant and also increased a lot lately in popularity afaik.
