Brett and Brenda!

Seriously OP I have twin girls and I had names earmarked for Tw1 and Tw2 but once you've finally pushed them out and met them they don't necessarily fit the names you had in mind !

Rose and Lily Thanks

I've got twin girls. My suggestion would be to pick two names that sound good no matter which name is in front. My girls names sound far more comfortable with one name first then the other. It has been upsetting for the girl who always gets called second in the pair.

Cadney and Lacey a la Brooklyn 99

ladyisabelle Did you mean to rhyme Kiera with She ra 😆
Kiera/Keira/ Ciara is “usually” pronounced Ker Ah

Sakura7 · 06/07/2019 09:24

Kiera/Keira/ Ciara is “usually” pronounced Ker Ah

I have never heard those names pronounced 'Ker Ah'. Must depend where you're from, but in Ireland (where Ciara originates from) it's pronounced 'Keer ah'.

Year Kear-uh

ladyisabelle · 06/07/2019 13:38

I didn’t notice it looked like she-ra ha, but I was thinking of the Irish pronunciation or Keira Knightley...I’m curious though how are you pronouncing kera?

Zoe and Charlotte
actually Zoe Kate and Charlotte Emily

OkPedro · 06/07/2019 22:29

Isobel & Clara

Vivienne & Philippa
Skadi & Freya
Lucy & Rose
Leyla & Alexis
Mable & Sadie
Sarah & Emily

I would avoid to combine a longer name with a shorter name or same ending sounds.
