HELP NAMING TWINS!!!

90 replies

sockieA · 21/07/2020 16:26

Me and my DH are expecting twins in November and desperately need help choosing names as we are horrific at thinking of names. We want the names to be meaningful to us and not just sound pretty but it's quite hard to do! Here's what we've got so far

DD -
Scout
Birdie
Luna
Star

DS -
Blue
Sparrow
Knox
Xavier

Any opinions or suggestions??

Sydney and Adelaide have been mentioned on the BN threads recently.

MikeUniformMike · 21/07/2020 21:05

Maybe Flyte and Cruz would be a better choice.

Bogie and Birdie go together nicely too.

Or Timbuktu and Ouagadougou?

MikeUniformMike · 21/07/2020 21:04

How about Compass and Passport. Unisex names.
Or maybe Jett and Cruz.

@dobbyssoc not sure which of my messages you are referring to. The only strange thing I notice is I spelled it Lief when it is actually Leif.

dobbyssoc · 21/07/2020 20:27

@MIgZig what a strange strange idea

MIgZig · 21/07/2020 19:10

And also mean to put 'Rowan' which can be used for either sex.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 21/07/2020 19:10

Do you know the genders

MIgZig · 21/07/2020 19:08

Yes, or you can spell it the Scandinavian way 'Lief' pronounced 'life'.

Shayisgreat · 21/07/2020 19:07

I like Xavier. I prefer Bridie to Birdie.

dobbyssoc · 21/07/2020 19:04

@JaJaDingDong

Can you imagine a 6' 15 stone man being called Sparrow? 😀
Or a 50 year old 5ft 10inch woman called "Birdie".

Parker231 · 21/07/2020 18:11

I think the OP is winding us up and the babies will probably be called Jack and Olivia.

947EliseChalotte · 21/07/2020 18:11

Beatrice (bee) and Honey?
Iris & Rose 🌹
Ivy & Poppy
Syke & Eden
Lydia & Lucia
Freya & Maya
Grace & Lily

Why are some people so rude on these baby names threads. There is a nice way of saying you're not a fan of the names but I think you would do better to just suggest other alternatives rather than tear downs the names OP clearly likes whether they are to your taste or not.

Just a thought people, be kind!

947EliseChalotte · 21/07/2020 18:01

Birdie and sparrrow
What about Robyn?

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 21/07/2020 17:58

I'm not keen on any of them and I think some of them are almost guaranteed to make your kid subject to ridicule (birdie and sparrow being the worst offenders.)

CommunistLegoBloc · 21/07/2020 17:51

@DotForShort BRILLIANT

CommunistLegoBloc · 21/07/2020 17:51

Every bugger and their dog seems to be having twins at the moment.

How about Fox and Socks?

DotForShort · 21/07/2020 17:50

What about the name Opportunity for a girl? That would go well with Knox.

user1493494961 · 21/07/2020 17:39

Birdie and Sparrow are great, or you could go for a Mumsnet favourite and have Wren and Sparrow.

sunrainwind · 21/07/2020 17:35

Luna and Xavier are the only passable ones (Xavier is a good name).

vampirethriller · 21/07/2020 17:33

Fort and Knox

Lotsalotsagiggles · 21/07/2020 17:33

Luna and Knox get my vote
