Choose my twin boys name

Hi everyone,

My wife and I are having twin boys in a couple of weeks time. We have struggled with boys names as we could not agree but we have finally agreed on one name now, but had a three-way tie with the second name. So could you please help us choose a second name. The options are:

Adam
Harry
Owen

Please could you respond with your favourite and the name with the most votes wins!

Owen

emmathedilemma · 18/02/2022 13:14

I like Harry but think Adam and Scott go together better.
I don't like Owen at all.

RuthW · 18/02/2022 12:14

Owen, but depends on the first twin's name

Rainbowqueeen · 18/02/2022 11:17

Adam
Chose it before I read your update about Scott. Would still choose it

qpmz · 18/02/2022 11:14

Adam. And Congratulations!

I haven’t heard of Scott being used for years, the youngest one I know is in his mid 40s.

Harry is lovely.

@Synchrony

Scott and Adam for me.

Unlike other people, I don't like Adam and Owen together. I think they're too similar.

Was just going to say this too.

I'd also ditch Scott and use Adam and Owen.
In order I like
Owen
Adam

Harry

Fivebeanchilli · 18/02/2022 09:39

Adam.
Then Owen and Harry tied.

Scott and Adam sound good together.

Oh yes, I’d vote for this - much nicer
coodawoodashooda · 17/02/2022 22:49

Yes. Adam and Owen are perfect.

Luredbyapomegranate · 17/02/2022 22:48

@Easterbunnyiswindowshopping

Owen Other 2 are way overused.
How is Adam overused?!

Anyway - Owen

ellenpartridge · 17/02/2022 22:46

bloominglovelyorange · 17/02/2022 22:45

Adam is lovely yet underused

PurBal · 17/02/2022 22:44

Interesting that Adam and Harry consider “overused” I know more Owens. I like Adam most. Then Owen. In my post birth stupor I considered changing the name of my son to Adam. The other name I considered was Elliot.

DramaAlpaca · 17/02/2022 22:43

I know it wasn't what OP asked, but I'd ditch Scott and have Adam and Owen. They are much nicer names and go well together.
