my friend is expecting twin boys and is struggling with names what do you think guys any ideas maybe you will come up with one you love
Well, my favorite names for twins are names that don’t sound the same, but they have the same meaning. I think it gives them separate identities instead just being known as a set of twins. Here are some:
[name]Beal[/name] & [name]Ara[/name] = “handsome”
[name]Leif[/name] & [name]Keefe[/name] = “loved”
[name]Blaise[/name] & [name]Egan[/name] = “fire”
If I had twin boys I’d consider…
[name]Isaac[/name] & [name]Jude[/name]
[name]Noah[/name] & [name]Isaac[/name]
[name]Sebastian[/name] & [name]Theodore[/name]
[name]Flynn[/name] & [name]Matthew[/name]
[name]Andrew[/name] & [name]Trevor[/name]
[name]Spencer[/name] & [name]Riley[/name]
[name]Brennan[/name] & [name]Tyler[/name]
[name]Jasper[/name] & [name]Maxwell[/name]
[name]Henry[/name] & [name]Ian[/name]
[name]Liam[/name] & [name]Declan[/name]
[name]Zane[/name] & [name]Jude[/name]
[name]Evan[/name] & [name]Troy[/name]
[name]Brody[/name] & [name]Brock[/name]
Personally I would not match initials, or rhyme, or worry over-much about themes.
But I probably would balance the number of syllables. A really long first name and a really short first name sound odd together to me. But I would do this for siblings in general, not just twins.
Some of my favourites if they were my twins:
[name]Isaac[/name] & [name]Aidan[/name] - Look, I can be mainstream when I want to be!
[name]Gabriel[/name] & [name]Jonathan[/name]
[name]Henry[/name] & [name]Levi[/name]
[name]Fox[/name] & [name]Bram[/name]
[name]Zane[/name] & [name]Finn[/name]
[name]Lysander[/name] & [name]Peregrine[/name] - not winning the mainstream prize, maybe needs to be in my guilty pleasure category.
[name]Cole[/name] & [name]Mason[/name]
[name]Jack[/name] & [name]Quinn[/name]
[name]Seamus[/name] & [name]Collin[/name]
[name]James[/name] & [name]Peter[/name]
[name]Matthew[/name] & [name]Mark[/name]
[name]Forrest[/name] & [name]River[/name]
[name]Morgan[/name] & [name]Avery[/name] (I’ll never understand these names on girls!)
[name]Spencer[/name] & [name]William[/name]
[name]Greyson[/name] & [name]Bennett[/name]
[name]Hunter[/name] & [name]Lee[/name]
