Baby Names

Twin boy names

I think we have decided on our twin boy names, just wanted to get opinions and make sure there's nothing I'm not thinking of regarding this sibset.

Arlo James S____
Conor Patrick S____

My only reservation I guess is that Conor (Connor) is a lot more popular than Arlo. Does that matter?

Re: Twin boy names

  • I really like them both. They are both recognizable but not overly popular and I don't think the fact Conor is slightly more is an issue. It's not like you picked John and Brixton.

  • I like them both, and don't think the difference in popularity is an issue.
  • I agree with PP, I think they are great names and sound good together!

    If you want something more up to date to match Conor you could go with Aiden, or Logan.

    But again, I think they both sound just fine!

    Good luck!
  • A nice match!

  • My only suggestion would be to find a middle name for Conor that can give him an easy nn. Arlo could have an easy initial nn like "AJ" but you can't really call Conor "CP" Is there another "J" middle name you like? That way you could have an AJ and a CJ.

  • Thank you all!

    @PaukMeKiande I actually did think about that because my older DS has a J middle initial also and I thought it would be nice for them to all be the same. But James and Patrick are both family names on my side. We considered using Joseph, which is H's grandfather, but honestly I feel really strongly about using my family names, since these kids will have H's last name forever. My dad has three daughters, so I know it will mean a lot to him too to have his family names carried on in some way.
