Margot & Beatrice /Beatrix
Margot & Claudia
Margot & Verity

These are very nice especially Beatrix and Verity.

Margot & Adeline ✅

PumpkinsAndCoconuts · 09/10/2023 17:58

I like Margot. It´s rather lovely.

Monroe really isn´t my cup of tea.

Adeline and Anastasia are both very pretty.

Margot and Anastasia or Margot and Adeline would be great!

I share an initial with one of my siblings and it was a total pain in the arse with mail. I purposely avoided it with my DC. And that's not even twins. The names themselves, Margot is nice and I'm sure having a moment after the Barbie movie. Monroe? So many people seem to assume this is for a girl in the comments. I thought boy, but that's maybe my Scottish roots - Munro?

Danielle9891 · 09/10/2023 18:05

If you give them the same initials and obviously the same date of birth it's a nightmare for ID purposes. My partner and his brother were always getting letters from the bank or doctors or that with Mr K Surname. It caused a lot of arguments. Even the other week his brothers doctor rang him instead.

godmum56 · 09/10/2023 18:07

DO NOT have two kids with the same first initial. I went through school with this and even though there is two years between us I was forever getting told I had missed a detention, had late arrival marks or missed registration because my awful sister had been misbehaving and her name had been written down as "J Godmum56" with the first initial only

ClairDeLaLune · 09/10/2023 18:08

Monroe is terrible! It’s a surname. And the collective name for mountains in Scotland - “Monroe bagging” is a thing (possibly Munro but sounds the same)

Please please don’t!

Adeline and Anastasia are really pretty.

MolkosTeenageAngst · 09/10/2023 18:08

Yes, YABU not to use the baby names board!

Hankunamatata · 09/10/2023 18:08

I'd go for two different initials. There was so many arguments in my friend's house with twin opening other twins mail.

MariePaperRoses · 09/10/2023 18:09

Margot is ok. Monroe is terrible.

Marnie and Mabel?

Issummernearlyover · 09/10/2023 18:09

My beautiful aunt was Marguerite Adeline. So yes to Margot and Adeline.

Annasoror · 09/10/2023 18:10

Anastasia is a beautiful name and can be shortened to either Ana, Daisy or Stacey.

SoShallINever · 09/10/2023 18:11

No, I think Margot looks like "maggot" written down. Monroe is awful unless you are Scottish and naming your child after a mountain.

Ladady · 09/10/2023 18:15

Thank you. Some great suggestions.
another we have on the list is Everly

We're just moving this over to baby names. Flowers

JoanOfAllTrades · 09/10/2023 18:17

Isn’t Monroe a boys name?

I love Margaux/Margot and also:

Rosaline
Venetia
Clara
Seraphina
Francesca
Anastasia
Katerina
Isabella
Mae Belle ( pronounced like Mabel but with emphasis on Mae)
Coraline
Vienna

I will be here all night! But a few names there!

Edit: added another name!

vibecheck · 09/10/2023 18:18

I love Anastasia, nickname Anya. Much nicer than Monroe.

PlasticineKing · 09/10/2023 18:18

Remember if they’re both girls and same initial that post will be a pain in the bum. Next door has 2 girls (older) and their bank statements are always being muddled up

ThirtyThrillionThreeTrees · 09/10/2023 18:19

I like Margot but Monroe is a surname to me, especially in Ireland.

They will also be called M&Ms or some other chocolate references - snacks when they are older etc.

I think with twins there are so many things they will share that at a lot of occasions the only thing that will actually seperate them especially to those who don't know them well is their names. Just my personal preference but I don't like matchy matchy twin names. Complementary is better.

Margot & Adeline is a lovely combination. Both slightly unusual but not unheard of and both in the same vein.

Bonbon21 · 09/10/2023 16:39

Please!!
Different initials, no rhyming!
They will be two very different people!

This!!
They're people not puppies.

DoesNotPlayWellWithIdiots · 09/10/2023 18:24

Ladady · 09/10/2023 16:41

Ok thank you. The other choice was Anastasia or Adeline for one of them

I love Adeline! Anastasia's pretty too, and I really like Margot 😊
Not at all keen on Monroe, sorry.

CoreopsisEverywhere · 09/10/2023 18:26

Love Margot

I honestly think you should use different initials and not rhyme

Sadie43 · 09/10/2023 18:26

Margot and Evelyn are beautiful OP.

BreatheAndFocus · 09/10/2023 18:28

Ladady · 09/10/2023 18:15

Or Evelyn

Margot and Evelyn is my favourite combination of those you’ve mentioned. Similar type of names, different initial letters, different ending sound. I also think they look nice written down together.
