I’m having girl boy twins.

My partner loves Rosa, I’m not a massive fan but I can become one. I’m comprising with him as we’re struggling to agree on names. Rosa reminds me of an elderly lady and a bit dated. What do you guys think?

I love Reon for boy, and he said he’ll go with that if I go with Rosa. My other boy name is Rueben.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Would your partner accept Leon?
It's so much nicer than Reon.

Rosa is beautiful.

I love Rosa - to me it’s a classic but also feels modern - I know young children and teens with the name and it suits them well.

I’ve never heard Reon before - I like it but I think it’s very similar to Reuben and because it’s rare will get misheard as Leon, if that bothers you? I can imagine being sleep deprived and having to explain for the 50th time that day that, yes they’re twins, and no it’s not Leon, it’s Reon with and “R” (from personal experience you get stopped and asked babies names a lot more with twins than a singleton 😂 )

I think having Reuben already to have Reon or any similar variant eg Rowan etc just sounds too much like Topsy and Tim.
But then I don't really like the trend of every child's name starting with the same letter, or kids with rhyming names etc.
Also Reon autocorrects to Ron so some people might think it's a typo and that's his name.
Reuben and Rosa are lovely names - why not choose a 3rd name that's nice in its own right rather than cos you want them to match in some way?

Sorry Iwan played Ramsey Bolton who waved the sausage 🌭.

I associate Reon, or Iwan Rheon, with a Game of Thrones character. He was a baddie. Sausage (iykyk).

Remember many young children struggle to pronounce r, Reon may not work well

Rosa is beautiful.
I have never heard of Reon. I can’t say I like it, it’s like a mispronounced Ryan.
Do you want them to have the same initials?
Rowan, Rohan, Roman maybe

I think Rosa is a pretty and classic name.

Reon is not a name I'm family with. It kind of seems like Leon mispronounced. Sorry :/
