the husband and i both have a very high probability of having twins... we both have an unnaturally hefty amount of twins in our families, one generation back, so we are kind of banking on it. personally, i hope it happens, but who knows?

anyway, we were talking the other day about having twins and have come up with some names...

girls:
josephine and genevieve
(josie and eve/evie)

girl/boy:
josephine and jasper
(josie and jazz)

boys:
noah gray and jasper john

havent decided on middles yet, but one of the girls middles will be colleen, after my late mother. also, boys middles are pretty much set. we love noah gray (gray is my mothers maiden name) and john after the my husbands father, despite the whole jasper johns reference, which he didnt even know, so we will just deal with it!

just curious what you guys think?

ETA: um i seem to have deleted the post for a minute. oops.

I like all the names on their own, but I'm not sure how I feel about them for twins. Naming twins is tricky, though, because everyone has their own preference... personally I don't like it when twins have matchy sounding names, so Josephine and Genevieve and Josephine and Jasper are not my style... but I do love Noah and Jasper for twin boys!

I was just thinking yesterday about how we would arrange our favorite names if we ever had twins (we have a high occurrence of people in our family getting pregnant with twins but losing one during the pregnancy... so it's a small possibility for us). Girl/Girl would be Zia Violet and Carys Audrey. Boy/Boy would be Jude Caleb and Oliver James. Girl/Boy would be Zia Violet and Jude Caleb.
