Can I?
For the obvious connection Adam and Eve?

Haha no. Although I do know a Kane and Abel which is nuts.

My 3 sons have some alliteration in their name and that is far enough!!!

I bet Kane ends up being the 'good' one.

Dp is an Adam and I'm always being asked if I'm an eve (followed by laughter)
Thankfully I'm not but I wouldnt-its too close

I mean, I wouldn't personally but it's up to you!

I feel your pain, OP. I have a Ted and was so sad not to be able to use William/Bill, until I had a girl and the problem went away.

Gosh no. It's like Mary and Joseph, the married couple on my street 😆

Brilliant!! We have a Bruce and Sheila on ours. I always say g'day!

We met a Comet and Mars recently. Sky Browns brother is called Ocean. Some people do enjoy a theme!

Personally wouldn't OP but as a pp said, you do you!

You should steer clear of Stephen too.

RedToothBrush · 19/09/2024 14:03

Well you could.

But youd have to live with it.

No, that would be funny. Adam and Evie. You could have a pet snake too.

DillDanding · 19/09/2024 14:03

No. It would be very silly.

FortunataTagnips · 19/09/2024 14:01

Nope.

Itonlytakesone · 19/09/2024 14:00

No I wouldn't

WimpoleHat · 19/09/2024 13:59

Oh. Usually I say that people are overthinking on these sorts of threads, but you’re not. Adam and Evie. No you can’t, unfortunately.

TheCultureHusks · 19/09/2024 13:59
