Twin girls around age two. Summer and Sky. WDYT?

Hippie names, but I don't mind that :D

I'm not sure they feel "equal", going by semantics.
If it makes sense, the sky is something always present, whereas summer is, well, seasonal. So it feels a little unbalanced to me.

Not saying that something too matchy would have been better, in fact Summer and Winter would surely have been worse. Maybe I would have gone with Sky and Ocean. But then again, maybe they were trying not to match them up too much.

I'm not too keen on twins sharing initials, though.

I like both names a lot individually, but they are a bit too themey together.

So glad to see Sky and not Skye.

I agree about liking the names individually, but them being too themey together. Maybe if one of the names was a bit 'out-there', or different, but not nature-related, I don't know.

Perhaps Skylar and Summer would have been better.. I think so anyway. Or Skylar and June.. something less blatant.

I love both, but I think together it's a bit too much.

Ehh.

I like the hippie-ness of it, but that seems very common among twins these days.

I know a girl, and she named her twins (now 5 or 6) Starr and Skye.
She has 2 other kids, Jace (about 2) and Gage (9 or 10).

i like them. summer moreso than sky. and, for obvious reasons, sky doesn't seem like a first name to me...

I don't like them together. I don't even really like them seperate.

It reminds me of twins I know(I think they're 20 now) - Angel and Amber Skyee. Yes... SkyEE.

ehr.. not that great together. Aside from that, Summer is probably my least-favorite of the season/month/day/weather names. Sky is good on paper and has a lovely connotation, but has a rather ugly pronunciation.

they're both awesome and it was a creative way to name twins...
but i wonder if this person has ever done any kind of research on twins. naming your set "summer sky" is not a good way to give them initial individuality.
