Hi Mumsnet people!
So...boy and girl twins due in 4 wks & we’ve agreed on a boy’s name : Rory Michael.

Thoughts?

lovely

DramaAlpaca · 27/07/2020 22:44

Love it. Really good choice.

BeMorePacific · 27/07/2020 23:11

Really like it ♥️

Pemba · 28/07/2020 02:51

I really like it, a change from all those Teddies and Alfies etc.

joystir59 · 28/07/2020 02:52

Excellent

Luckingfovely · 28/07/2020 02:52

Perfect! No more thinking about it Grin

Good name, but hope he can pronounce his Rs.I know people who struggle with a name like Rory.

ToyKitchenSink · 28/07/2020 08:40

Boy and girl twins but you've chosen two boys' names. Have I missed something here?

Leodot · 28/07/2020 10:25

@ToyKitchenSink Yes, you’ve missed the fact that the boy twin will be called Rory Michael whatever their surname is. The OP hasn’t posted the girl’s name. She isn’t calling one twin Rory and one twin Michael!

ChimpyChops · 28/07/2020 10:26

Lovely 💞

MikeUniformMike · 28/07/2020 10:30

Lovely, but depends on the surname. Rory Rowlands or similar will be too many Rs.

Doh! Having a blonde moment. Love the name Rory!

Ignore me though. I can't seem to comprehend simple English!

FairfaxAikman · 28/07/2020 11:35

I live both names and have both on my list for DC2, but weirdly don't like them together.

However you're rarely going to use a middle name (DS has two middle names that are only ever used in official documents) so I'd just ignore me and go for it Grin

bridgetreilly · 28/07/2020 13:00

My main thought is that you've already agreed the name, so it doesn't matter what a load of strangers on the internet think of it. You like it, you've chosen it, that's the end of the matter.

Leodot · 28/07/2020 13:04

@ToyKitchenSink 😂

ivfdreaming · 28/07/2020 13:06

To be honest I don't like it - it's just a bit of a mouthful - Michael Rory sounds better

Danniiaddy · 22/08/2020 00:43

Well, we didn’t go with Rory in the end!

DH went off it!
Our twins were born a week early - on Tuesday 18th August. We are beyond ecstatic.
We named them: Clara Florence & Joseph Michael.
🥰👶🏼👶🏼🥰
