a comment about twins was just made and i thought i'd ask... if you had twins, any combo, what names would you use?

for years now, i've thought that Evelyn and Sylvia complemented each other well. i'll go as far as using middles... these are just going to be random... Evelyn Lucille and Sylvia Charlotte

For boys... I think I like Louis Daniel and Patrick Charles...

Boy/girl... Thomas Joel and Audrey Jane...

The only ones I've ever put any thought into has been Sylvia and Evelyn... The rest I just thought of now. Although I did think about a Louis and Eloise paring, as both are top favorites of mine... But that's too... Gross. Heh.

And I'm not much of a nickname person AT ALL... but i adore the nicknames for Louis and Patrick. Lou, Louie.. Pat. Iunno. I just like them for some reason. They fit little kids and adults. Whatever.

Twin combo names, please! :D

I lOVE the Cara and Mia idea, thats so cute.

[serendipitous13.livejournal.com]

My picks for twin girls names both start with A.
That's purely coincidental though. They're just my top two favorite girl names.
I do agree that having names that sound alike or rhyme is just too much.

[serendipitous13.livejournal.com]

These are, of course, without asking my boyfriend. He doesn't like the same names I like so there are many fights in our future. Anyway...

Twin girls: Audrey and Amelia
Twin boys: Sebastian and Joseph
Twin boy and girl: Amelia and Joseph (They are both names honoring ancestors.)

[http://users.livejournal.com/-glass-/]

oh... i understand. my boyfriend and i don't agree on names at all. i like classic, traditional names and he likes things that just sound cool. heh. he wants to honor his father and i loathe the name, but i'd be letting him do it. and his family has a tradition of passing the father's first name to the son's middle name and mine passes the middle as the middle, also. so i'm going to have some kind of combination of matthew(boyfriend) steven(his dad) david(my dad) and it's steven that i don't like at alllll. this is getting long and personal. haha :D

Expecting twins in January I have given this a litte thought, lol. I'd be interested seeing some peoples opinion on it.

I have Grace & Gabriel and Natalie & Nicholas for boy/girl. I havent come up with any girl/girl boy/boy names yet though.

[ericaamericka.livejournal.com]

Why not Grace and Natalie and Gabriel and Nicholas if they're both the same gender?

Twin girls: Scarlett and Gillian (i was reading one of those bad celebrity magazines and scarlett johannsen was having a party with her friend gillian and i just thought the two together were very nice)

Twin boys: Sam and Bailey

boy and girl: i dont know

I wouldn't name twins differently than I'd name any other two siblings. I think twins have enough issues with idenity -- forcing them into a matchy matchy oh-so-cute set for all time... It's just a bit much for me. So whatever my two favorite names were at the time, there you go. Today we'd have some combination of Seneca, Daphne, or Tabitha for girls and Cedric and Tavish for boys.

[http://users.livejournal.com/-glass-/]

...i know. that's why none of my names are matchy. sometimes names just go together well. it's weird to have a few common names, then a crazy one. and all names i listed were pulled from my favorites list. it's not like i plan on doing this... except maybe sylvia and evelyn. heh. i love that for some reason. so it's not like i'd do a julia and julian or like i said... louis and eloise, even though those are my number ones for a boy and girl.

[queen-exene.livejournal.com]

i LOVE evelyn lucille and sylvia charlotte!

I prefer Louis James,though, but love Patrick Charles.

the only one i don't like is Thomas Joel.

[ericaamericka.livejournal.com]

Ummm...
Arson Roy and Atticus Richard for boys.
Dylan Joyce and Justice Hayward for girls.
And Arson Roy and Justice Joyce if they're a boy and a girl.

[lolacat.livejournal.com]

Arson... like the criminal act of starting fires?

[ericaamericka.livejournal.com]

Yes. :)

[ericaamericka.livejournal.com]

I <3 the name Tybalt, too. :)

[xxsilverbellsxx.livejournal.com]

I like Evelyn & Sylvia! For G/G twins I like Rowan & Acacia, and for B/B twins, Peregrine & Julian. Both have themes. Can anyone figure 'em out? :)

G/G: Gaea & Ruby
B/G: River & Willow
B/B: Killian & Rowan 'Kian & Roan'

No idea about middle names.

(Gaea is said jee-uh)

[pixiequeen112.livejournal.com]

I really never thought of mulitple births babies but if I would name:

(these names are in top of my head)
G/G: Laila Evadne, Jessica Aaliyah
B/B: Isiah Nemesio, Xavier Salvatore

[lolacat.livejournal.com]

Probably whatever names I have stashed away. Right now my favorite names are Amelia and Calvin... if we had two girls it would probably be Amelia and Julia, and if it were two boys it would be Calvin and Eric or Owen. But I wouldn't approach it any differently than naming 2 sibs... I wouldn't want to think of it as an opportunity to be cutesy.

[pale-september.livejournal.com]

I love Evelyn and Sylvia for a twin combo.

I think the same first letter is a really good idea. I have twin friends named Keith and Kevin.

Samuel and Sawyer

Jesslynn and Jackson

Alexander and Allison

Benjamin and Brayden

Taylor and Teagan

Elizabeth and Ella

Emily and Eli...etc :)

[the-theorist.livejournal.com]

Boys:
Patrick James & Logan Miles

Girls:
Olivia & Devon (don't know about middle names)

Boy & Girl:
Connor Brian and Ciara Michelle

My brother and his wife are expecting twins this November. We still don't know what the names will be but I suggested Devon and Eugene.

A friend had a cute idea: she said if she ever had boy-girl twins she'd name them palindromes Nadia and Aidan.

[momentarygenius.livejournal.com]

I like the first letter matching, but i dislike rhyming. I have friends Amy and April, and I have friends Matthew and Patrick (Matt and Pat) and the 2nd drives me CRAZYYYYY. Yes they could go by their full names, but their parents have called them that since birth so it's a hard habit to get out of. But I like the way Amy and April go. But then again if I were to have a second child and it was a girl I'd be naming her Kelsey or Kyra or Kendra to go with my Kristen already...


in summary: same first letter ok, rhyming noooo.

[estrella-jenita.livejournal.com]

well i've always wanted to have twins... and have alwasy liked matching names.... so mine would be
g/g Cierra Juliet & Sonja Jasmine, Emma Catherina Alexis & Ella Victoria, Esmé Elizabeth Michèle & Elianna Victoria Grace

b/b Dawson Ryan & Drew Micah, Jackson Scott & Jevon Clay

g/b Connor James & Christina Jasmine
Jevon Clay & Julene Christa
Dawson Ryan & Danielle Christina Elizabeth
Austin Kaelan & Audra Mikayla

[anapology.livejournal.com]

Girls- Esme Marissa Morrison & Amelia Rose Morrison

Boys- Ethan Alexander Morrison & Sebastian Charles Morrison

Boy/girl- (i would love Ethan & Esme but i dont like the idea of E/E)
If i did come round to that idea then it would be that, if not...

All the twins i know have boring names
