Ideas for boy/girl twins?

Preferably a bit Celtic as our ds's have scottish names. Our surname ends in 'son' so unfortunately can't use ones like Madison which I know isn't Scottish but I like!
To be even more difficult, nothing beginning with C/E/F or K as I'll get too confused with the rest of us!

Isn't Talia Russian?

chipmonkey · 17/05/2008 22:55

Just don't call them Sam and Ella.

struan?

hunkermunker · 17/05/2008 22:51

LOL! Cross-posted with your Fraser. Not that then - would be a bit odd to have two called Fraser - but it's one of my very favourite names, so you could

hunkermunker · 17/05/2008 22:51

Isla and Fraser.

What are your other boys called?

1dilemma · 17/05/2008 22:50

I love Finn and Flynn but dp said no last time, rats. I have 2 ds's already (five )! I actually quite like Douglas hate Doug when it's shortened. Perhaps I'll have to give up scottish theme as dp is so sodding fussy. I was all set on Gabriel (yes, I know not scottish) as I thought it was my turn but he's vetoed it. Have never considered girl's names before!

That was quick, thank you? Nope, don't have to be same letter, I was just thinking it would be nice if they were linked in some way. Hadn't heard of Fergal, nicer than Fergus I think which we had considered for ds2.

Michael or Fergal and Morag or Finola/Fionnuala. DO they have to start with the same letter?
