Hi am having ID twin boys and we have been racking our brains for names.

Have come up with Finn (My DP is Irish. also means fair and little warrior, and he is the smaller of the two), and Issac.

We loved finn and Artie, but of course in school it will be fartie....so had to scrap that. Do not want names beginning with the same letters as want them to be as individual as possible...any other sugestions? Smile

Finding 1 name is tough but 2....!! Think Finn is a great name and love Artie but understand the fartie bit.. Smile

Archie, Sam, Theo, Hugh/o, Edward, Thomas
Guy..Monty?

Along the right lines hippy or way off???

I know a little boy called Riley Finn, he is such a sweetie.

My brothers are twins, but luckuly not identical, but their names both begin with M, so when they started getting post addressed to Mr M xxx they would open each other's post.

Archie, Charlie, Jacob, Bily??

Finn and Charlie...sounds IMO lovely!

Noah, Harry??

hippy3 · 24/11/2010 18:48

lol....thought about Archie as well... that was one I loved but my partner not so keen...

I Loved alfie as well and Albie....but hes not into them.

Monty I quite like... i also quite like hugo ?? seem to hear names and think oh that sounds nice... its hard when u realise they are going to be left with these forever..and im not even thinking about middle names at the moment!! just acnt get my head around that....!

Finn and Isaac are both lovely

what about Arthur? you could use Artie as a nickname but it doesn't have to be used at school?

SixtyFootDoll · 24/11/2010 18:55

I love Finn and Isacc go well together too

I like Finn and Jake

freerangeeggs · 24/11/2010 19:36

I'm sorry to be pedantic but Isaac is not spelled with 2 s's, but with 2 a's. I like it as long as it's spelled properly - other ways looks really weird and the last thing you want to look as though you're getting wrong is your own name!!

Finn and Isaac are gorgeous together. Arthur is actually pretty trendy at the moment and I like it. Finn and Arthur would be fab too.

LolaBellsAllTheWay · 24/11/2010 19:37

If i had twin boys it would be Lauchlan and Cillian. Love those two names.

But i do like finn and isaac.

Aaron, caleb, leo?

oooggs · 24/11/2010 19:38

congratulations on your twin news Grin

mine are g/b so didn't have this problem

love Issac, Finn is nice too but very popular down here (Finley/Finlay as well)

Thomas is nice and one of its meanings is twin

Joshua? Jacob? James?

Edmundo · 24/11/2010 19:39

I like Finn & Isaac and Finn & Arthur.

AvengingGerbil · 24/11/2010 19:39

itsjustmyopinion - really? Riley Finn? As in Buffy's squeeze? Fandom or accident?

Edmundo · 24/11/2010 19:41

Riley is awful.

Mrsmackie · 24/11/2010 20:44

Love Isaac - spelt correctly though! And Finn is really nice too. Think they go well together

hippy3 · 24/11/2010 20:51

Finn and Isaac is a lovely combo.

On the Irish leaning...
Rafferty and Malachy.
Joseph and Liam.

FWIW I love Arthur (dad's name and DS middle name) but don't think it runs with Finn at all.

If you're settled on Finn, how about Jude, Milo or Conor as partners.

Edmundo · 24/11/2010 21:04

The founder of School Guru has a Finn (well he is Finlay) and an Arthur. I think they go very well together, and how cute are her boys? www.schoolguru.co.uk/hello.html

I do like the suggestion of Milo. Rory goes well too.

bigbluebump · 24/11/2010 21:24

Finn and Artie is not a good idea imo - fartie really is inevetitable amongs silly schoolboys Grin.

I like Finn and Isaac.
