I’m due b/g twins in 2 weeks and we’re thinking of calling them Freddie/Fred & Lily. What are peoples thoughts? I appreciate they’re popular names…but Fred I’ve just always loved and Lily is after my Nan.

Middle name James for boy and struggling with Lily (on the list are Emilia, Amilia, Elenor, Eloise,Olivia…open to options!)

Thanks!

They are both super popular. Quite nice but I’d go for Frederick/Alfred / Elizabeth/Lillian as full names, as they are quite nursery.

I love them! Fred James & Lily Eloise

@LemonViolet

They’re twins in the archers aren’t they?

My nephew is called Freddie (Fred when we can’t be arsed with the extra syllable ) he’s 15 and I haven’t met another yet. I love it but then again he’s a lovely boy so maybe that’s why!
Lily is always going to be a lovely name
Congrats!

Was going to suggest James and Lily then…..but they’re Harry Potter’s parents!

They're both nice names but together they remind me a bit of Sid and Lily the clothing range.

Do you listen to the Archer's or is your surname Pargeter?
