babynamesI was watching True Life on MTV and there was these two women having twins. One was having twin boys and the other one twin boys, they both happened to have an elder child of the same sex as the twins. Here are the sib sets:
Boys:
Carson - about 4 years old
Cole and Cooper - twins
As much as I think the repeating C is kind of eh... I like that Cooper and Cole aren't so alike and the names are alright in my book.
Girls:
Armonie - about 6 years old
Arneessa and Arnissa - twins
Oh dear gods... they are pronounced Uhr-NEE-suh and Urh-NEYE-suh... those poor children...
And just for fun, what would you name your same sex twins?
I know some people would just pick the top two names on their list but I would looove to have twins named Una Elena* and Olivia Alcyone. As for boys, they do get my top two boy picks: Apollo _____ and Castor Gavin (yes, I like stars and constellations and my son Castor will probably hate me if we live in a spanish speaking country, he can share the hate with his sister Una xD)
*family name tradition in my family, first born daughter gets her grandmother's middle name (or name as a middle name). Elena is my mother's middle name and her grandmother's middle name.

Date: 2009-11-26 02:29 am (UTC)Twin girls for me would just get my top 2 girls names in general. Twin boys would get my first and third picks for boys' names, because I don't think my 2nd choice goes will as a twin with my first choice.
Girls: Zia Violet & Carys Audrey
Boys: Jude Caleb & Oliver James

(my brothers are identical twins and share J names and I'd never repeat that with my own).

All middle names are family names.
My husband's suggestion for twin boys was Miguel and Tulio....

Date: 2009-11-26 03:36 am (UTC)My twins(both girls) are named Vivian Adrian and Vera Audrey. So, well, that's what I'd name girls. lol.
If for some reason I have twin girls again... I would definitely consider Charlotte Maine and Lorelai Monroe, with possible nicknames of Lotte and Lore.
Boys would be Roman Elliott and Raleigh Eli. Or maybe Gallagher Connor and Gabriel Constantine.
