Alexander and William.
Alex and Will sound lovely as does Alex and Billy.
I think Nathaniel is beautiful and I like Natty/Nate for nn's.
Could Alexander and Rafferty work?

I agree with Sophronia:

Alexander and Jonathan?

(If you want to shorten, then Alex and Joe go nicely.
Or Xander and Joe.
But plenty of other options: Jon/ Jonny/ Jonty/ Nathan...).

Twin boys. How lovely. Smile

halfbuffy · 28/01/2017 05:41

What about Nicholas?

Umblubblub · 28/01/2017 06:35

Another vote for Alexander and William, both lovely names with several shortened versions to choose from. Agree you need a long name to go with Alexander.

Alexander and Matthew
Alexander and James
Alexander and Oliver
Alexander and William
Alexander and Daniel

AlexanderHamilton · 28/01/2017 09:48

I like Oliver. Goes well with both Alexsnder & Alex.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 28/01/2017 09:50

Alexander and Christopher, Alexander and Patrick or Alexander and Daniel

Sapphireshadow · 28/01/2017 10:16

I like the suggestion of Alexander and Elliot (maybe because I know brothers with these names).
Also like the suggestion Alexander and Nathaniel - Alex and Nate.
What about...
Alexander and Samuel - Alex and Sam
Alexander and Sebastian - Alex and Seb
