Scottish Twin boys?

Hi,
Looking for inspiration for our twin boys due January. Surname begins with P, so no Ps please!
Also not keen on A & A, etc. (thinking ahead to mail getting mixed up when they're older.)
Looking for quite traditional but not too twee Scottish names.
Thanks :)

James and Alexander

SilentAllTheseYears · 05/12/2014 17:05

William and Wallace?
Robert and Steven?

Seriously though:

Keir and Alisdair
Drew and Brodie
Eoin is also nice

florascotia · 05/12/2014 17:23

But surely Eoin is Irish? The Scottish Gaelic equivalent would be Iain.

CatsClaus · 05/12/2014 17:32

i knew scottish boy twins called James and Hamish

...I think Hamish is the scottish version of James, so always felt that was a bit lazy.

Sorry OP! I can't think of a single one to add... because you've had practically every lovely boy's name posted above - choose a pair from there and you won't go far wrong.

I think Iain is due a comeback.
