'Da Twins

I think we may have chosen names for our twins - nothings for sure yet but....

Baby Boy will be: Ryan Quentin Lease
Baby Girl will be: Morgan Iris Lease

Ryan is a family name from his side, Iris is a family name from my side. I was a little leery of how the names "Iris" and "Lease" sound together, but it's a middle name, so I feel OK about it. I also like how the names sound together - "Ryan and Morgan" or "Morgan and Ryan" - but they don't rhyme in a cutsie way, or start with the same letter, so it's more individual.

Other names that are possibly still in the running:
Sydney (or Sidney)
Adrian
Jordan
Ava
Griffin
Gage
Julian

So far in this pregnancy, this is one of the hardest decisions I've had to make. Opinions? (Be kind!)

I love the names you have chosen! :D ANd Iris sounds fine with Lease to me.. especially since it's a middle name. And I'm all for family names.
The only name I like better is Gage for a boy. That's the name I wanted first, but hubby wouldn't go for it. ;(

Not huge on Morgan for a girl...
But I liked Sydney and Ava for girls! :)

i think the choices you've made are perfect. and i agree on the slight similarity of the two names (ending in 'an').
