If you were having twins, what would you call them?

[SurpriseTwinPregnancy]

Currently 16 weeks with twins. Don’t know the sexes yet. Need some inspiration. What would you call yours?

@SurpriseTwinPregnancy congratulations. I'm also 16 weeks and expecting twins. Unsure whether to find out the sex of them before or to wait until birth but the naming thing has been a consideration.

Totally get wanting your babies names to compliment each other. I have two older children, both (unintentionally) have first names with the name initial, G. I didn't name either if my first two until a few weeks after birth. We tried a number of names on them until one 'stuck' and felt like them.

Here are some of the names we like:

Boys -
Elliot
Vaughan
Stanley
Jude
Jasper

Girls -
Maeve
Florence

Esther
Iris
Paisley

Hoping to find more suggestions on this thread:)

My twin girls are Felicity and Matilda. You have excellent taste. 😁

@SurpriseTwinPregnancy

Do you know if they are identical or fraternal?

Are you looking for 2 boy names and 2 girl names only or B/G combo's as well?

For same sex I love:

Freya & Isla
Olive & Pearl
Jean & Rose

Elliot & William
Jasper & Cassian
James & Henry

G/B I love

Christopher and Robin
Rosalyn and Charlotte
Matilda and Juliette
Guinivere and Genevive
Sebastian and Timothy
Edwin and Alexander
Luke and Jossiah
Keziah and Katherine

These are just names we had on our (v)long list!

More likely fraternal but small chance identical apparently so looking for B/G combos too!

This. (Also have twins.) Avoid rhyming or alliteration.

I think it's nice to have similar style names as in both traditional, both nature names, both ultra modern etc, but nothing cutesy or twee with the same first letter or rhyming, or after cliche tv characters like Rosie and Jim or Bill and Ben etc.
They are twins but they are also individuals.
