[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone!
We’re expecting twins in [name_u]August[/name_u] and we’re really struggling to pick our favourites. We aren’t finding out the genders so we’re a little overwhelmed with all the names we’re having to pick! My wife has a son from a previous relationship, [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Elijah[/name_m], and we’d like the twins’ names to have the same sort of interesting-not-crazy tone, but we do have slightly different styles. We’re also in the UK where a lot of the popular Nameberry names are a lot more used! Our last name is [name_m]Bruno[/name_m] which rules out a bunch of our favourites. Here’s the names we’re liking:
Boys:
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
[name_u]August[/name_u]
[name_m]Otis[/name_m]
[name_m]Magnus[/name_m]
[name_m]Griffin[/name_m]
[name_u]Devon[/name_u]
Girls:
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
[name_u]Sage[/name_u]
[name_f]Winifred[/name_f]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u]
[name_f]Saffron[/name_f]
[name_f]Allegra[/name_f]
Any advice on our picks or any new suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you!
I think Daisy is a wonderful sister name for Felix. Maybe:
Daisy & Lola
Daisy & Willa
Daisy & Zelda
Daisy & Romy
Daisy & Sybil
I like August best of your boys’ names:
August & Rowan
August & Jasper
August & Devon
August & Tristan
Felix is a great name! From your boys list I like August the best, may I also suggest Miles/ Milo? I also think Reuben/ Ruben, Charlie, Abram or Victor would be lovely. For a girl I think Maggie, Lucy, Rose or Pearl would be so adorable. Good luck with your Twins!
[name_f]Willa[/name_f] was on our longer list actually! Thanks!
[name_m]Reuben[/name_m] was almost [name_m]Felix[/name_m]’s name I believe! Thank you!
@ridesontwohorses: [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] is a wonderful suggestion for this sibset!
From your boys list I love [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] together as well as with [name_m]Felix[/name_m], that would be my vote in the event of two boys!!!
Other names that come to mind are:
[name_u]Tristan[/name_u]
[name_m]Edgar[/name_m]
[name_m]Marius[/name_m]
[name_m]Reuben[/name_m]
[name_u]Winslow[/name_u]
[name_m]Adrian[/name_m]
[name_m]Casper[/name_m]/[name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_m]Vincent[/name_m]
[name_m]Alastair[/name_m]
Your girls list feels a little less cohesive, I’m guessing this is where those conflicting styles come into play? [name_u]Eden[/name_u] and [name_f]Winifred[/name_f] from your current list work well with [name_m]Felix[/name_m], not so much together. [name_f]Saffron[/name_f] isn’t a bad choice either.
Some ideas:
[name_f]Iris[/name_f]
[name_f]Agatha[/name_f]
[name_f]Ethel[/name_f]
[name_f]Lola[/name_f]
[name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
[name_f]Wendy[/name_f]
[name_u]Ariel[/name_u]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u]
[name_f]Briar[/name_f]
[name_f]Helen[/name_f]
[name_f]Augusta[/name_f]
[name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Dorothy[/name_f]

@brittanyanitarose Yes, the girls names are where we have different tastes! My wife prefers a little more traditional and I prefer more unusual. [name_f]Harriet[/name_f] and [name_f]Augusta[/name_f] were two of her favourites! Thank you!
I think there is plenty of intersection between traditional and unusual, I have no doubt you’ll be able to find some names that you both love!
