Boy Girl Twin Names

We are due boy girl twins VERY soon. I am lucky that DH is easy going on this and loves all names on my lists. I am so indecisive and want them to sound good together but not too obviously matching names. Here are my lists in no particular order. Would love opinions on names individually and also suggestions of boy-girl pairings. Middle names will be the same for both, a family name, non negotiable and will go with anything, sort of like an add-on to our surname.

GIRLS
Daisy
Violet
Nina
Eliza
Lucinda
Marnie
Tatiana
Frances
Plum
Mariella
Genevieve

BOYS
Ludo
Spencer
Sidney
Francis
Jesse
Jude

Veyr much my personal opinion, but the only boys name I like from your list is Jude. I like most of the girls names though, but personally i'd go with Jude and Violet, or Jude and Daisy.

Mangoonmyshoulder · 03/04/2016 16:47

Jesse and Daisy or Jesse and Violet Smile

TheTartOfAsgard · 03/04/2016 16:48

Marnie and Jude.

Is plum an autocorrect?

nectarini1983 · 03/04/2016 16:50

I like Jude and Violet as said above. Plum is awful....often used as an insult for someone who's a div!x

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 03/04/2016 16:50

Daisy and Jude
Or
Marnie and Jude

CleverPlansAndSecretTricks · 03/04/2016 16:53

I like Eliza and Jude. They sound great together.

gBean · 03/04/2016 16:53

Francis and Violet

Lol at Plum

GinAndLemon · 03/04/2016 17:02

My mum was a Plum and she pulled it off brilliantly. I know it's bold so it's great to get honest opinions! X

I like Marnie too. Jude is nice but St Jude is the patron saint of lost causes and hopeless cases which would put me off a bit!

What about Stanley? I love Stanley!

PointlessUsername · 03/04/2016 17:04

Daisy & Sidney

IoraRua · 03/04/2016 17:44

Jesse is the only boys name I like.
Girls: Mariella, Nina or Violet.

GinAndLemon · 03/04/2016 18:06

Girls: (in order)

Genevieve
Marnie
Violet

Boys:

Jude
Jesse

I don't think Marnie and Jesse go together, though

IncandescentRain · 03/04/2016 18:24

Spencer and Frances

Joinourclub · 03/04/2016 19:24

Genevieve and Francis ( I like Ginny and Frank) or Eliza and Sidney (Sid).

missapples · 03/04/2016 19:29

Spencer for sure, adore that name. Girls either Nina or violet

CanadaMoose · 03/04/2016 19:29

Eliza and Jude!

Blondie87 · 03/04/2016 19:31

Daisy and Jesse

ceeveebee · 03/04/2016 19:34

I have boy girl twins and one is called Eliza, the other has Stanley as a middle name!

I think Eliza would go well with Jude or Francis or maybe Frankyln (nn Frank for both?)

HerbieRidesAgain · 03/04/2016 19:44

Shame about Stanley as Stanley and Violet are fabulous names :)

I'm not keen on any of the boys names, except Sidney so perhaps Sidney and Violet
As you can guess I like Violet. I have never heard of Plum as a name, but I do like it is it short for something else?

Sophronia · 03/04/2016 19:50

Nina and Sidney
Eliza and Sidney
Eliza and Francis
Nina and Francis

PhoenixReisling · 03/04/2016 20:42
