We are having such a hard time agreeing on names. Both of us being Irish, originally I did want typical Irish names. Now, after going through loads of them, I hate them all. Surname being 'McKenna' I'm finding is so difficult to find first names that flow haha.

I personally like Leyton and Tait. My partner likes Tommy and Patrick (no way is that happening)

Anyone want to throw some suggestions at me? We both have big families, which is a pain. Made up of mainly boys.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I just had to comment: Alex and Alec? Dear fucking lord. I imagine every single conversation goes
'oh, you two are twins'
'yes'
'what are your names?'
'Alex and Alec'
'YOU'RE BOTH CALLED ALEX??' 'No, I'm AlecSSS, he's AlecKK.'

Over and over and over again. My god.

I like your partners idea of Tom and Patrick.

Excellent!

Ottilie, I know. It took me years to figure out who was who as they were totally identical. The weird thing is they are both really sorted, confident people! (now grown up) and certainly don't live in each other's pockets but have a good friendship. It made me realise that names are important but not THAT important.
