Just found out our twins are boys ... what do people think of Abel and Arlo?

We also have a grown up Isabel and lucy, plus a toddler called Otis.

I’m not keen on Abel, or the nn Abe which I think would be the natural nn. Makes me think of Ape.

I don’t mind Arlo, it’s not something I’d pick but it’s quite popular.

Personally, I'm not keen on either name and really dislike them as a pair.

Annoyingly people tend to put twin names together as a set when discussing them so I'd use different initials too.

Totally get that this is my own personal hang up though so feel free to ignore of you like them!

You hear Abel, you think Cain.
