Twin boys: Luca and Nico

[vp234]

Hi, having twin boys and struggling with names.. we are thinking of Luca and Nico as feel they "fit" together.

Any other suggestions or opinions on these names? Thank you!

Only if you’re Italian. Even then too cutesy.

I like your names!

I'm in Australia in a town with many Italian settlers from the 1940's. Italian names tend to be changed anyway. For example I know a family with:

Giulia = Julie
Franco = Frank
Giovanni = John
Leone (means Lion) = Leo
Remigio = Reg

You get the idea! I wouldn't worry too much about the italian side of things personally.

Congrats on your twins X

Are they in the Mafia?

@sweetydahling Ha! I don't think so. But you never know......

I like your names!

Marco could also be an option.

As others have asked, are you Italian? If not, it’s so achingly middle class and pretentious. Someone had to say it. Might as well be me. 😐

I don’t agree. Both names are pretty mainstream where we live (big city). No one would bat an eye and not necessarily middle class.

LOVE Marco. Luca & Marco sound good together.

It must be a regional thing, to be concerned about using names that don't "belong" to your heritage. I have Scottish heritage but gave my son an Irish name. No one cares.

Yes, no one cares where we live. Anything goes! I’m not surprised by any names really. People go for all sorts and it makes for an interesting mix.
