If they were the opposite sex

I had dc twins - who turned out to be boys

But our girls names were Poppy and Daisy

First of our friends / sibling group to have DC so one told us that Poppy and Daisy were the naughty twins in Ben and Hollys little kingdom Blush

I liked Jack, dh liked Daniel.
Jack and Daniel might have sounded a bit alcoholic.

Mydogisagentleman · 06/07/2024 22:17

DD would have been Duncan or Adrian.
She should have been Lydia, but DH said that it was too posh and too thin

Iris (ended up using it for another DCs middle name)
Felix or Edmund - both came close for DC1.
