Baby Names

Help us name our twin boys...

We're having a terrible time coming up with names!  So far the only name we agree on is Isaac.  Middle names will be Martin and Joseph (both are family names).  I'm trying to find names to go with Isaac but DH is being really really stubborn. 

My favorite combination is Isaac and Isaiah - but I feel like they are too similar.  To begin with I wasn't wanting matching names but now I feel like maybe its the "twin thing to do".  I do want them to flow together at least...

So far I've tried/liked:
Isaac and Isaiah
Isaac and Leo
Isaac and Ian
Isaac and Micah

But he's pretty much veto'd those ideas...  He likes Isaac and Michael (won't settle for Micah).

So I'm looking for something that goes well with Isaac - doesn't matter matchy or not at this point :)

Thanks ladies!

  • Boy names are so hard for me! I really do like Michael, but only a a full name. DH is Mike, and he doesn't want a junior. I also know that his nn was Mikey as a kid, which I HATE. I like Micah a lot too. I'm also trying to convince DH on Malachi, which I think goes well with Isaac too.

    ETA:

    What about Isaac and Thomas? I love the name Thomas, but it's out for us because it's my BFF's son's name.

  • FWIW I think Micah goes great with Isaac.  What about Henry, Lucas, Owen, Ethan, Reid, Nathan, Carson.  I don't like the matchy matchy thing with siblings or twins.

  • I really like Michael.......but I don't like that some day they could be referred to as Mike and Ike! That would rule out Micah for me as well.  The only other one out of your list that I like is Leo. Also like:

    Vincent

    Dominic

    Samuel

    Joseph

    I would steer away from the matchy names
