Hi, so I'm having twin boys and am wondering which two first names you like the most from my list for them? ☺️
(Don't really need a bunch of negative comments on them all, just a pick of two favourites would help! 😂👍)

Jasper
Luca
Xander
Flynn
Eli
Ronan

Jasper and Luca or Jasper and Ronan

Jasper and Ronan are nice.

I like that your names are all different and not matchy because theyre twins. My twins have got totally different names but i chose two names with the same sound in it so they roll off the tongue as their names get said together a lot. Eg Jasper and Lucas both have a soft S sound. (I know you said Luca but i think Lucas sounds nice with Jasper).

My son's name is Jasper. It's original enough (he's the only Jasper at school) and people compliment him on the name - which he loves. We call him Jasp/Jaspi for short. Definitely a good pick!

I like "strong names" (with an R in them) so I'd pick Xander as the other one.

SneezesHaveStarted · 28/05/2022 10:11

I’d pick Xander and Eli.

If you’re set on Jasper though, then I don’t think I’d go for Xander, and Eli has quite a different feel to it too.

I think Jasper and Flynn or Jasper and Ronan sound best together (though I 100x prefer Rowan to Ronan and that would be my choice 😀

cherrymax · 28/05/2022 10:13

Eli (maybe short for Elijah) and Luca. I absolutely love the name Luca.

Jasper is nice too.
I also like Luca and Noah together.

OneCup · 28/05/2022 10:15

Flynn and Jasper 😊

Snowiscold · 28/05/2022 10:23

Eli (maybe short for Elijah)
Eli isn’t short for Elijah, though. It’s a completely different and unrelated name.

Luca and Eli. Lovely

Well, it could be if the OP wanted it to be. Chill your boots! 😄

Elspethelf · 28/05/2022 10:29

Jasper and Ronan

Jasper and Flynn

Eli is a stand-alone name, separate to Elijah. It can be a diminutive, but suggesting that it has to be is like saying that Mary should be a nickname for Marina.

my favourites are Flynn and Jasper.

FASDE1517 · 28/05/2022 10:45

Jasper and Luca. (Although I prefer Lucas) Jasper is one of my favourites.

WakeWaterWalk · 28/05/2022 10:47

Jasper and Eli. I also like Elijah.

Congratulations and Good luck!

The OP doesn’t. She’s already said.

Hurstlandshome · 28/05/2022 10:59

Luca and Ronan

Mumofgirls2017 · 28/05/2022 11:00

Jasper and Flynn

indoorplantqueen · 28/05/2022 11:05

Luca and Eli. I don't think Ronan goes with any of those names as it's Irish and the others are not.

Flynn is Irish

uncomfortablydumb53 · 28/05/2022 13:13

Eli and Luca

Marcipex · 28/05/2022 13:22

Xander and Flynn

Greentomatoes21 · 28/05/2022 13:25

Luca and Flynn

Luredbyapomegranate · 28/05/2022 13:26

Elijah nn Eli
Alexander nn Zander

Great names, but the diminutives are v nicknamey, and they might want to be Elijah and Al, or whatever, when they are big

pitterypattery00 · 28/05/2022 13:54

Ronan was my top pick for my son put partner wasn't so sure. Still love it.

Of your other names, I like Xander (although prefer Alexander), Flynn (also like Finn/Finlay) and Luca.

Not keen on Eli (looks too short somehow, I know that's a ridiculous reason!) and dislike Jasper.

Best combinations maybe -
Ronan and Finn
Luca and Finn
