31+ weeks with DCDA twin boys, we have decided unless they really don't suit them on the first names Lewis and Noah.

For Middle names we like James and John

I would love to know opinions on which way round sounds better..

Lewis John and Noah James
Or
Lewis James and Noah John

Thanks!!

My gut reaction is Lewis James and Noah John.

possum18 Heh!

Tbh, it's so rare that someone gets called by both names that I think it really doesn't matter very much which way around they are. It's just one of those things that seems very important before the baby is actually born. I changed my mind about my daughter's middle names two minutes before we went into the Registrar's office. I still mildly regret what I changed one of them to, but they are never used, so pffft.

Good luck!

You can't call a child John Lewis it's a bit mean, although not as bad as housr of Fraser Grin

Anyway Noah John and Lewis James has a nicer rhythm to it.

Although i prefer Noah James, rather than Noah John, Lewis John seems a bit unfortunate for the other one who may get teased about being named after the shop John Lewis...

Lewis Johnathon, or Lewis Jonah may be better?

Lewis John
Noah James

Hadn't noticed the John Lewis thing either.

Or Louis? I prefer that.
