What are your imaginary twin boys called?

I had a dream that I was expecting twin boys last night and now I’m convinced it’s a sign (not really, just hoping!). I daydream about baby names a lot and was wondering what names you’d choose for twin boys? (Don’t worry I haven’t gone completely loopy, I’m aware it was just a dream - just fun to think of these things 😊

Fascinating that everybody on this thread has specified two different names for their twins; but giving them both the same name can save a lot of money, time and confusion when it comes to labelling their stuff and will also make a 50% efficiency saving in the time it takes to call them in from the playground or down for dinner.

I never understood why there is a name - Thomas - that means 'twin', but which is never given to more than one of the twins! Plus, it is also often given to boys who are not twins.

I once met an old lady who introduced herself as 'Twinnie' - "My real name is Mavis, but I'm a twin, so everybody always called me Twinnie". Apart from that being rude and the height of laziness on their part, did they call both of them Twinnie, and if not, why not? And if we're going to be that reductive when it comes to twins, why don't more people just call single-pregnancy children 'Girl' or 'Boy'?!

@WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll isn't "Twinnies" what Topsy and Tim get called by their mum on the TV programme?

I think so - but it's more an affectionate nickname rather than a name-substitute; and at least she calls both of them that!
