Twin sets/top 4/sibsets?

[lduff2011]

So this go around of IVF we have a 50-60% chance of twins! I am super excited about that possiblity but my hubby about fainted in the room while talking to the doctor. We are going to do out FET(frozen embryo transfer) either the last two weeks of [name_u]Jan[/name_u] or first two weeks in feb 2014 so not long of a wait. My dh thinks I am nuts but I am starting to look at names again and not going to lie kinda obsessing about it as I am not totally sure how I am going to find something that I love as much as my son’s name, [name_m]Silas[/name_m] [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Duffey[/name_m].

So here are my questions for you:

1. Which are your top 4 for each boys and girls
2. which sound like great twin names (please nothing matchy or starting with same letter)
3. which go best with [name_m]Silas[/name_m]? and our last name, [name_m]Duffey[/name_m]?

Here is what we like so far:

Girls:
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Petra[/name_f]
[name_f]Phaedra[/name_f]
[name_f]Hermione[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
[name_f]Aria[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
[name_f]Tesla[/name_f]
Allifair
Allira(pro. A-LEER-uh)
Meraud
[name_f]Merida[/name_f]

Boys:

[name_u]Mercer[/name_u]
[name_m]Alistair[/name_m]
[name_u]Jericho[/name_u]
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucian[/name_m]
Hrothgar
[name_m]Maverick[/name_m]

Top Four - Boys

[name_m]Lucian[/name_m]
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_m]Abram[/name_m]
[name_u]Theo[/name_u]

I would avoid [name_m]Leonidas[/name_m] or [name_m]Maximus[/name_m] (ends in “s” like [name_m]Silas[/name_m]), [name_m]Maverick[/name_m], [name_u]Jericho[/name_u], Baofire, Hrothgar, [name_m]Malik[/name_m], [name_m]Bainbridge[/name_m] (different styles)

Top Four - Girls

[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Petra[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]

Flows Well with Your Surname but Not A Fave of Mine

[name_f]Aria[/name_f]

I like but wouldn’t choose [name_f]Hermione[/name_f] (ends in an “ee” sound like your surname), [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] and Meraud (too heavy on the d’s as is [name_f]Merida[/name_f]). The remaining names I’m not feeling with [name_m]Silas[/name_m].

Sibset Suggestions

[name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_m]Abram[/name_m] (strong and Biblical)
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] (magical and sparkling)
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_u]Theo[/name_u] (spunky and joyous)
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_m]Lucian[/name_m] ([name_m]Roman[/name_m] and rollicking)

[name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_f]Willa[/name_f] (vintage and literary)
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_f]Thea[/name_f] (simple and sweet)
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_f]Petra[/name_f] (lively and pretty)
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_f]Aria[/name_f] (frilly and feminine)

[jadealexandra]

[name_m]Silas[/name_m] [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] and…

My top 4 for girls are:
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Willa[/name_f]
[name_f]Phaedra[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
But I also like:
[name_f]Aria[/name_f]
[name_f]Petra[/name_f]
[name_f]Merida[/name_f]
My top 4 for boys are:
[name_u]Rafe[/name_u]
[name_m]Abram[/name_m]
[name_u]Theo[/name_u]
[name_m]Finnegan[/name_m] nn [name_u]Finn[/name_u]
But I also like:
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucian[/name_m]
[name_m]Leonidas[/name_m]
[name_m]Fredrick[/name_m]

Some twin ideas are:
b/b: [name_u]Rafe[/name_u] [name_m]Abram[/name_m] [name_m]Duffey[/name_m] and [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_m]Fredrick[/name_m] [name_m]Duffey[/name_m]
g/g: [name_f]Willa[/name_f] and [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_m]Duffey[/name_m] or [name_f]Thea[/name_f] and [name_f]Phaedra[/name_f] [name_m]Duffey[/name_m]
b/g: [name_u]Rafe[/name_u] [name_m]Abram[/name_m] [name_m]Duffey[/name_m] and [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_m]Duffey[/name_m]

They all flow nicely with your last name! And go nicely with “[name_m]Silas[/name_m]”. However it was hard finding mns from the girls’ list because they all either ended in “a” or began with “a” so I found myself sort of stumbling over them. Great list, though By the way, are you planning on using two middle names again?

[lduff2011]

[name_f]Jada[/name_f] yes we will be doing 2 mn again this time as well but we have other lists for mn’s. The first names could go as mn if we don’t choose them as a first option but so far this is fn list only.

and

[name_f]Petra[/name_f], [name_f]Willa[/name_f], [name_f]Thea[/name_f], and [name_f]Merida[/name_f].
