Hi, I’m having twins in December around the solstice and I love the changing seasons.
We’ve been thinking of naming them Solstice and Equinox, what do you all think? Too out there? Any other suggestions?

Please don't give twins matchy-matchy names. It's really naff. Also it's very important they are individuals and not just "the twins" all the time. Don't dress them the same either, give them different hair styles.
See Twins Trust for all the research which shows why it is so important for them to be individuals in their own right.
Yes I am a mother of twins in case it makes a difference.

Hi there!

Congrats on expecting twins- it’s a fabulous blessing. There’s a great book called ‘emotionally healthy twins’ by J. Friedman which is worth a read in preparation of parenting twins. Xx

My twins are Cancer and Capricorn. We were going to name them Greenwich and Equator but decided we like the c's. Not sure I'd use Cancer if I had it to do over again -- we've had some remarks.
