Twins names

[Reiltin]

We have a Harriet & a Nathaniel. I don't know yet what we're having so we're looking for 2 names we like for boys and girls. We like that Harriet & Nathaniel are both rare names (we're in Ireland) so we don't want anything too common. Any thoughts?

Matilda
Edith
Jemima
Polly

Benjamin
Elijah
Tobias
Jasper

Christopher and Susannah go nice with the names you have already chosen, good luck.

Zachary
Edward
Sebastian
Sacha
Lucas
Julian
Toby
Gabriel

Alexandra
Sarah
Beatrice
Caroline
Penelope
Jemima
Winona
Rose

Quentin
Reuben

Clara
Iris

I know lots of twins through my twin group - avoid anything too matchy, it gets confusing! We went with the same initial for our boys and both quite classic names which I'm glad about now - in my group of twin mum friends, all the "unusual" names are duplicated at least two or three times!

As a mother of twins I agree - avoid matching names - it's really naff!
Also if they are identical try and avoid dressing them the same. See TAMBA research for why it's a bad idea. TAMBA is well worth joining by the way. Loads of discounts. Especially useful for shoes.
