BOY NAMES?

?

GIRL NAMES??

We are still TTC but if that was the situation, we'd just use our two favorite boys or girls names. I wouldn't try to "match" or use the same sounds or anything. They shouldn't be treated differently than same-sex siblings. For example, our favorite girls names at the moment are Abigail and Caroline, so that would probably be it.

Congrats to you! That is very exciting!

I would name them 2 names that I like. Or a name I liked and a name my H liked.

I am not into matchy matchy names for any child in my family. I don't really believe that kids in a families names have to "go together". 2 kids have different and seprate personalities, so should their names.

Dh and my favorite names at the moment just happen to start with the same letters for boys and girls. Not intentional at all.

Girls : Sage (my fav) Skylar (dh's fav - blech!)

Boys : Jack and Jude or Jullian and Jude

We would just go for our two favorite names of each gender. Now that would come out to be Neil and Callum or Molly and Norah.

I don't get the whole matching sibling thing. I mean, if someone simply loves two names that start with the same letter, that's cool. (If we have two girls and a boy, they'll end up Molly, Norah, and Neil--two N names.) To be intentionally match-y though... nms.

PunkyBooster · August 2009

I would name them my top 2 boy names and my top 2 girl names. The fact that they are twins has no bearing on me when it comes to names.

So, for example, Caroline and Elisabeth and Cole and Declan.

Mrs.Deputy · August 2009

Evelyn and Charlotte

Seriously, though, we wanted names that sounded good together but weren't matchy-matchy or confusing. For instance, we had decided on Evelyn, so we ruled out Eleanor because we didn't want two "E" names and didn't want an Ev and an Elle.

We didn't come up with two boy names. But probably would have picked two from this list: Oliver, Calvin, Benjamin, Isaac, Theodore, Henry

If I had my way, girls would be Elsa and Laura, and boys would be Silas and Harlan. That's with no say from my H though.

mrsmegs06 · August 2009

1. Ty and Brady

2. Wynn and Sydney

JustSadie · August 2009

G - Lucy and Molly

B - Levi and ? I don't like any boy names!

anna7602 · August 2009

Boys: Salvador and Santiago, because I like both names but it came down to either or when we thought we might have a boy (we ended up with a girl).

No names come to mind for girls, we already used our first choice names for DD's fn & mn, but I guess I would have given DD's twin sister her mn?

ScissorTailedFlycatcher · August 2009

I'm not a fan of matchy-matchy names, either, but I like subtle connections. For example, picking two names that mean the same thing, or names that are from the same ethnicity. I don't really have any examples (I can barely come up with one boy name and one girl name as is) of what I would name them. Sorry, I just wanted to add some things to think about.

Cole Christopher & Nathaniel Isaac

Mallory Clara & Cordelia Ann

All middle names are family related: Christopher after Dh's best friend, Isaac for my brother that was stillborn, Clara after Dh's grandma, Ann after Dh's greatgrandma and his mom's mn. My Dd's mn is after my grandpa's sister.
