Hi, so I'm having twin boys and am wondering which two first names you like the most from my list for them? ☺️
(Don't really need a bunch of negative comments on them all, just a pick of two favourites would help! 😂👍)

Jasper
Luca
Xander
Flynn
Eli
Ronan

Well, it could be if the OP wanted it to be. Chill your boots! 😄

The OP doesn’t. She’s already said.

Jasper and Eli. I also like Elijah.

Congratulations and Good luck!

FASDE1517 · 28/05/2022 10:45

Jasper and Luca. (Although I prefer Lucas) Jasper is one of my favourites.

toastofthetown · 28/05/2022 10:44

Eli is a stand-alone name, separate to Elijah. It can be a diminutive, but suggesting that it has to be is like saying that Mary should be a nickname for Marina.

my favourites are Flynn and Jasper.

Jasper and Flynn

Elspethelf · 28/05/2022 10:29

Jasper and Ronan

Eli (maybe short for Elijah)
Eli isn’t short for Elijah, though. It’s a completely different and unrelated name.

Flynn and Jasper 😊

cherrymax · 28/05/2022 10:13

Eli (maybe short for Elijah) and Luca. I absolutely love the name Luca.

Jasper is nice too.
I also like Luca and Noah together.

SneezesHaveStarted · 28/05/2022 10:11

I’d pick Xander and Eli.

If you’re set on Jasper though, then I don’t think I’d go for Xander, and Eli has quite a different feel to it too.

I think Jasper and Flynn or Jasper and Ronan sound best together (though I 100x prefer Rowan to Ronan and that would be my choice 😀

Aurory · 28/05/2022 10:10

My son's name is Jasper. It's original enough (he's the only Jasper at school) and people compliment him on the name - which he loves. We call him Jasp/Jaspi for short. Definitely a good pick!

I like "strong names" (with an R in them) so I'd pick Xander as the other one.

Badqueen · 28/05/2022 10:10

Jasper and Ronan are nice.

I like that your names are all different and not matchy because theyre twins. My twins have got totally different names but i chose two names with the same sound in it so they roll off the tongue as their names get said together a lot. Eg Jasper and Lucas both have a soft S sound. (I know you said Luca but i think Lucas sounds nice with Jasper).

comealongponds · 28/05/2022 10:06

Jasper and Luca or Jasper and Ronan

BakewellGin1 · 28/05/2022 10:05

Xander and Luca or Luca and Glynn for me

ObsidianBlock4 · 28/05/2022 10:03

Hi lad!? I'm more of a fan of the names 'Bedrock' and 'Obbie'. I based them off of my favourite game 'Paper's Please'. I hope this helps alot.

Thanks guys for the nice comments, hmm a lot of mixed choices!

Jasper is the only one which is likely to be a definite choice, but we've struggled to come up with any other boy names we both like (if it had been boy/girl twins we were set!🙄😀)

Jasper and Ronan. Luca is lovely too.

Arnaque · 28/05/2022 09:55

Congratulations!
Luca and Flynn go well together imo

Fivebeanchilli · 28/05/2022 09:53

Jasper and Xander are my favourites but I think they sound too matchy for twins so I would pick Xander and Flynn or Jasper and Flynn. (And use the other as Flynn's middle name).

AloyNoraWarrior · 28/05/2022 09:50

Flynn and Xander.

HairyBum · 28/05/2022 09:48

Luca Xander
