To think these Names are Wierd for Twins

[Leigh1980]

Diesel and Levi? An aquaintance has just had two little girls and named them Diesel and Levi . Why???

I much prefer Benson and Hedges. Much classier!

Hahaha DailyMaui. I just always think of a career when you're older and job opportunities and it's a proven fact that having strange names can really inhibit your career. For example can you imagine a president name Spike or an author name Diesel? It's sounds strange but I watched a documentary about your name verse your future and it really is true. My name is extremely different as in hardly anyone in the world has a spelling like mine. It's very specific too, I get lots of compliments but nobody knows how to spell it and it drives me crazy having to tell everyone the meaning of it and to spell it. But it's a nice normal sounding name just a different spelling.

YANBU - they should've gone with Daisy & Duke!
Whilst I think they're awful names better suited to pets than children, and apparently that' a common opinion, In all seriousness I do also think it's a touch unreasonable to judge another parent for their naming choices ... so.

shrugs

I know of twins called Arthur and Martha.

Levi is a bible name.

Dcat is Diesel

Topsey and Tim are weird twin names.

My sister had twins, girl and boy, she called them Denise and Denephew.

In all seriousness,ca woman I know has twins called Jack and Daniel.

What about gin and tonic?

I used to know someone who has twins called Ocean and Cherish. She was mental and not in a good way!

Gin and Tonic are great names . I love the name Denephew, it has an authentic to be to it

Tone not to be it !! Damn phone

Levi is a perfectly normal name, but yes, usually a boy's name.

Diesel has no redeeming features at all for me.

Lambert and Butler or maybe Carl and Lisle after the town where they were conceived. We have recently had a weird baby name in our family and the Grandfather has had sleepless nights about it. Shockingly narc behaviour to call a kid something weird just to draw attention to yourself.

I know twins called Ella and bella... Fucking disaster.

I knew a woman who named two of her children after unrelated celebrities who had the same surname, purely because the children's father (whose surname they'd been given) also had that surname.

My sister had twins, girl and boy, she called them Denise and Denephew

Could be worse, I met someone once who called all her children after perfumes, her two youngest girls were called Rage and Envy, it's about the only time I really did judge, they are truly awful names.

Diesel is a name that means 'oops we wanted a boy'.

I know a girl Levi, I quite like it and it really suits her.

A friend has a relative called Nike. He's changed the spelling himself to Nicky.

If he was a girl he was going to be called Ellesse. Which is quite a nice sound, but will forever be associated with naff nineties sweatshirts.

Geez WhyamIhere those are horrid names, not just the sound but the meaning of Rage and Envy is so negative and aggressive. I'd hate to be called that.

I met them at a party where the entertainer called the eldest one up, she was about 5, he asked what her name was, she said Rage and he got her to repeat it and then said (in a disbelieving voice) 'what like road rage', gasps from every parent there, it was an awful thing to say to a child but I just thought that they will both get that reaction all there lives, poor things.

I know boy/girl twins called Tulip and Hedge. Poor Hedge got the the bum end of that deal

Condoleezza Rice seems to have done ok with her crazy name.
i'm not a fan of diesel either, but i think to say it will hinder their career is strange

I remember reading a birth announcement in a local paper. Someone had twins and had named them Diadora and Ellesse!!

I used to know a parent with two boys, not twins, called Neil and Deneil

I also know another parent with 3 boys called Bobby, Freddy and.....Teddy
