Hey!
I'm sooo stuck
We're having boy girl twins and just need ideas.
Originally i didn't mind not having the first initial matching, but now I think I should!

I'm English with Irish background & my partner is English & Jamaican, so need names to suit both if possible.

So far we have

Reon & Raven
Renzo & Rahlia ( Rah - Lee - aa )

I like unfamiliar/ short names, and he likes simple/ short
names.

Trae & Crue for a boy is also liked
Finding girl names hard!
Any suggestions please throw my way ❤️

I would avoid matching initials. They will already have the same DOB. It makes medical records a bit of a nightmare.

Lennox and Quinn

Love all those names op! Finally something interesting and not always the same old boring William, George, Jonathan 'classics' that are suggested here.

I love Renzo and Rahlia.
I would make sure their second names start with differing letters - to make mail somewhat easier.

I think if you are going for matching initials then more or less recognisable names helps steer away from any tweeness. Also agree w PP that you want to have middle names with different initials

I think Renzo and Rahlia are great names!

sel2223 · 04/11/2024 05:47

I think it's lovely that you want to find names to honour their British, Irish and Jamaican heritage - I love when there's a bit of thought and history connected to a name.
I, would, however, avoid matching initials. They are twins with same dob but they will also be individuals, let them have their own initials
