I like Hart and Ivo and Penny and Roscoe

my choices would actually be Tennyson, Roscoe, Hart or Inigo

Sorry, not particularly keen. They sound overly fanciful as others have said, I assume to make you feel like you sound unusual or creative but that sadly isn’t how it comes across. Unless there is some deep connection to any of them, I’d look for something lower risk. I’m guessing perhaps this is a joke post. In which case, hahaha good one.

I have twin boys, it is tough.

Of those we considered Ivo and Inigo (not together).

I like Eben and Ivo as a pp suggested, and Inigo and Grey. The rest are a tad fanciful imo.

Olympicfatigued · 02/08/2024 15:45

Please don’t use these names. Your poor boys.

KirstenBlest · 02/08/2024 15:44

Eben or Roscoe and Ivo

BluebirdBoogie · 02/08/2024 15:12

Not a fan of any of them apart from Ivo. Why on earth would you call a boy Penny?

ThePoshUns · 02/08/2024 15:11

Caledon and Tennyson - Caledon
Sounds like a vegetable
Emeric and Omri Emeric sounds like a medical intervention
Eben and Gable Eden and Gabriel would be better
Hart and Ivo
Penny and Roscoe sound like you watched too many episodes of the Dukes of Hazard
Inigo and Ozias
Hale and Gray sounds like a hardware brand

Firsttimebabymummy · 02/08/2024 15:09

None

ThePoshUns · 02/08/2024 15:07

Penny for a boy?
Sorry but not keen on most of those , it looks like you can't spell ie Eben do you mean Eden?

Eben, Ivo and Gray are the only names on there I could contemplate. Sorry but some of those are just begging for the kid to be teased. Penny? Really?

I have to agree with this. Those are the only names I’d consider.
Please, oh please, do not call a boy Penny. It’s bad enough on a girl but definitely not a boy.

Chika89 · 02/08/2024 15:04

None of them, they’re absolutely awful. Penny!?

Eben & Ivo

Theoldwoman · 02/08/2024 15:02

None.

TomatoSandwiches · 02/08/2024 15:01

Hart & Gable

Meadowwild · 02/08/2024 15:00

From that list: Inigo and Ozias

Hale and Gray sounds like a Seventies cop show that never quite made it to prime time and Emeric is too close to emetic which means vomit-inducing. The others are just wild, which is fine if you want wild. But I genuinely like Inigo and Ozias works with it

CaptainBeanThief · 02/08/2024 15:00

None.
I don't mean that to sound harsh but it's not something I'd call my children.
I just don't understand why people are trying so hard to have out there names for their kids when they sound bizzare
