With the exception of

paisley- a pattern, and trendy
parker- NOT A GIRLS NAME
scout- Read anouther book
taylor- Surname and horrid on girls'
torrye- euw
tyler (x3)- NOT A GIRLS NAME..3!?
valexa- sounds like an alien

boys:
adrien- Should be Adrian
atticus- I hope she didn't say Scout too.. again, read another book.
chad- hick
fennell- a vegetable
kayden- ick trendy ick
landon- ick trendy ick
leoben- is this legit?
october (toby)- Toby is nice, October is silly
optimus- Destined to be pessimist.
parker (x4)- trendy

Jack (x7) wow.. i can't believe people still like to use Jack when it's so inredibly popular and has been forever

[ifancylust.livejournal.com]

tyler and parker are unisex, aren't they?

[florallove.livejournal.com]

they're boys names to me.

I'm imagining a little girl with the name Parker and it just seems too masculine.

[anapology.livejournal.com]

They shouldn't be. They are so masculine.. if I saw either (but especially Tyler) on a girl I'd be pretty horrified.

[pythianlegume7.livejournal.com]

I definitely think they are unisex.

[ex-bluebonn.livejournal.com]

Don't know about Leobon, but Lyuben is Russian I believe.

[florallove.livejournal.com]

would little Optimus's middle name be Prime?

that's what people would ask him every day of his life.

[feisty-fitz.livejournal.com]

That's what I thought, too.

Twin Name List

[crossingthesea.livejournal.com]

That's a quality list. Thank your friends.

Did they have particular suggestions on pairings?

Are you pregnant or just investigating?

Re: Twin Name List

i'm not pregnant or ttc. i was just curious. :]

Re: Twin Name List

[crossingthesea.livejournal.com]

Just wondering. You got some really good suggestions.

If you didn't see it already, there was a challenge last week that had to do with twin and multiple name sets. There were some great ideas. You might enjoy it.
