Identical Twin Names

[3under2whatcangowrong]

Hi everyone,

(NC as very outing)
We're expecting identical twins this July and whilst we've got girls names nailed, we're really struggling for boys.

They'll be siblings to Tristan Jack.
Our surname is long and ends in y, so would like to avoid ie and y names (Alfie, Gary etc)
I'd personally like to avoid popular names of the 80's meaning I was at school with them throughout the 90's (Lee, Mark, Matthew, Thomas, Craig, Scott etc).

I love Jasper, DH thinks it's a dogs name so need to avoid them too.

James & Seigfreid, Arthur & Lancelot already considered and rejected .

Please help!x

Arlo & Theo
Sebastian & Alexander
Oscar & Oliver

Ones with good nicknames:

Christopher nn Kit
Wilf(red) nn Wilf
Barnaby nn Barns or Barney
Nathan/Nathaniel nn Nate
Rafferty / Raffy
Sidney nn Sid
Laurence nn Laurie

Other ideas:

Eli
Ellis
Miles / Milo
Seth
Cole
Otis
Eric
Casper
Rudy/Rudi
Dexter
Blake
Angus
Dominic
Idris
Percy
Chester
Caleb

Slightly more out- there

River
Bodhi
Otto

Joshua and jake/jacob

Rowan and Laurence
Magnus and Jacob
Caspar and Louis

Some lovely suggestions here which include several we've bandied about;
Kit
Alexander
Jake

Oscar definitely a good shout.

Not sure if I want matching initials though. Only because I remember how much I hated it when my dad opened my post "mistakenly" as we have one shared initial x

Nathan and Dominic
Lucas and Anthony
Michael and Christoper
Robert and Oliver
Arthur and Reuben

matching initials just add to people's confusion :)

Oscar & Alexander sound good!

Lucas and Oscar sound great

Theodore and Leopold (Theo and Leo)
Leon and Lucas
Raphael and Florian

Carter and Finlay
James and Henry
Arthur and Robert
Nate and Jacob
Lloyd and Noah
Hugo and Seth
Vincent and Oliver
Victor and Leo
Miles and Byron
Edward and Lucas
Xander and Francis

Lucas and Oscar sound great

I think this is what Michael McIntyre's kids are called. Obviously not a bad thing!

Theodore and Tobias
Lucas and Lawrence
Fenston and Frederick
Phineas and Noah
Horace and Hugo
Elijah and Elliot
Sebastian and Samuel
Also , Finn. Caspian,Elias, Rowan, Dexter, Hiratio, Quinn,Quinton, Nero, Balthazar,Lysander, zander

Rowan and Otto?

Reuben and Seth
Patrick and Daniel

I love Kit! Please choose that name. Also like Miles - nearly chose that for DS.

Max
Theo
Fraser
Elliot
Sebastian
Lawrence
Marcus

I though Oscar and Alexander too!

Kit Alexander and Jake are lovely OP
Oscar is really lovely too and post is becoming less and less of an issue seen as so much is fine online now. Even my doctor letters are now all online.
Rowan I see as more of a girls name but I find it too similar to Roman anyway
Try and keep working on your husband about Jasper I recon. It’s such a great name. Do you like Casper?

Austin and Miles
Elliot and Nathan
Evan and Lucas
Gregor and Alex
Keir and Oscar

Asa and Seth

I’m just relieved Siegfried and Lancelot are off the list

If you do go Kit, which is a great nickname, please name him Christopher/Christian etc so that if he doesn't want to be Kit forever he can have other nicknames to choose. I absolutely love Tristan though. :)

Christopher
Ludovic nn Ludo
Giles
Cyril
Hector
Tarquin nn Quin
Rollo
Osbert nn Bertie or Oz
Ivor

Arlo
Luke/Luca (less popular than Lucas
Jacob
Sebastian
Oscar
Toby/Tobias (nn Tobi)
Benjamin / Ben

Wow so very unusual makes in this lot! I don't envy you trying to choose!
Congrats . Sorry I can't think of any cool names to add . If your other half is being fussy ask them to write a list !
