name suggestions for boy twin 2 needed please

[dangermousse]

Apologies for name changing but I thought I might be a bit too identifiable.

I'm expecting boy twins in a week, and am really struggling with one of the names. We really like Rory, but just can't decide on the second name. We're in the UK but have an Irish surname (DH is irish), and already have a dd, Orlaith.

All suggestions/ideas gratefully received.

TIA

I love the name Rory.

Toby?

Oh well I'm Irish so some of my suggestions might be too Irish?

I love Diarmuid. It's an excellent name!

Rory and Diarmuid
Rory and Tadhg (that works better actually, as a combo)
Rory and Oisin (on the Irish version of the Cheerios ad, the children are called Orla and oisin!)
Rory and Donnacha (too many ways of spelling Donnacha perhaps, I have also seen Donnachada, and it's still pronounced Dunuk)
Rory and Lorcan

My favourites are Diarmuid and Tadhg, but I think Lorcan would work really well in the UK. Rory and Lorcan has a ring to it too.

I love Diarmuid too, but there is already a Dermot Snr and Jnr in the family, so dh has ruled out Baby Dermot...

I like Tadgh too although friends of friends have twins called Rory and Tadgh

Is Liam a no-no??

Also can't have Callum or Finn (other twins in the family)

Rory and Felix?
Rory and Angus?
Rory and Ewan?

Something of one syllable might be good.

Not sure exactly why.

I like Felix with Rory.

What about Rory and Fergus?

Rory and Alister?
Rory and Murray?

I wouldn't go for Liam in the UK. I think it is perceived to be quite down market which is ridiculous obviously as it's a form of William, but having read comments on here, I would not use it in the UK. To be honest.

Rory and James
Rory and Gus
Rory and Jules.

I live in manchester, alot of Liams round here, not really a name I associate well.

Owen (or Eoin or Eoghan)

rory and conall
rory and caolin
rory and conor

Thanks MagalyZz, that was the conclusion I had come to, but wanted to test my thinking. Rejected Conor for popularity reasons too.

Had Fergus on my reserve list, w James as poss middle name. Not too OTT to be shouting across soft play?

Like Eoghan (a spelling nightmare in UK poss?)

Rory and Patrick
Rory and Peter

rory and fionn?

Patrick
Malachy

Rory and Cian?

Thanks everyone, really appreciated

I'm putting together a new and improved shortlist to run past DH

With dd we found it so straightforward to pick a name we both liked, I feel that the right name this time round should just 'stand out', and so far I just can't decide. (Wish DH had stronger views on this!)

Rory and Colm
Rory and Cormac
Rory and Dara
Rory and Ardal
Rory and Torin
Rory and Niall
Rory and Donal
Rory and Lorcan
Rory and Tiernan

(Sticking with two syllables as if you've gone with Orlaith and Rory that's presumably what flows best to your ears)

dangermouse - I also had that experience with my second DC

Conan?

i have a friend with boy triplets called Rory. Gregor and Ewan.

Are you particularly looking for Irish names?
