I like it when twins names start with the same letter, they do share a special bond...

I think it's great that you're putting so much thought into it, actually. ;) Too often parents basically choose only a name for "Twin A," then pick something eerily similar -- whether they like it or not LOL -- for "Twin B." Shame.

Really, the question of a unique versus common name is a case-by-case one. If the names are stylictically similar, for example, I don't think popularity is that big an issue. For instance, both Chloe and Hermione are from Greek mythology. So although Chloe is quite popular and Hermione less familiar (at least beyond Harry Potter, unfortunately), they're still obviously well-thought-out names for siblings. I wouldn't find them odd in the least.

On the other hand, naming one Emily (most popular name for a decade LOL) and the other Xerxes (VERY uncommon Greek form of a Persian name) would seem an obvious mismatch. ;)

Now if you do happen to like two names that seem miles apart in terms of familiarity, but still work together stylistically, perhaps a more or less common middle name (switched for the more or less common first name) would help provide some balance. For example, both Aidan and Niamh are traditional Celtic choices, but Aidan happens to be very common and Niamh less known (in the states). Still a great match, but if the parents feel one might resent having the popular or unfamiliar name, Aidan might be given a more unusual middle name and Niamh a familiar one. Aidan Malachy and Niamh Caitlin, for instance. :)

Hopefully you get the idea. Good luck!

Adele, Eloise, Lylah (Lilah is a prettier spelling), Belle and Lucy are desirable! Adele Josephine Marie Gomez Eloise Sophia Katherine Gomez Lylah Chloe Elena Gomez Belle Valentina Grace Gomez Lucy Autumn Nathalie Gomez Bayah Megan Rose Gomez Melodee Holly Jenna Gomez Brelynn Hallie Iona Gomez Brooklynn Abigail Francesca Gomez Paige Alexandra Juliet Gomez in case you like the names Gabriel, Nickolas, Taylor and Mateo, i think of stable sib-instruments could be; Gabriel and Belle Nickolas and Lylah Taylor and Lucy Mateo and Adele center names; Gabriel Joseph Adam Gomez Gabriel Nathaniel Lucas Gomez Gabriel Joshua Michael Gomez Gabriel Mason Phoenix Gomez Nickolas Samuel Harry Gomez Nickolas Daniel Jordan Gomez Nickolas Andrew Callum Gomez Nickolas Zachary David Gomez Taylor Jadon Lewis Gomez Taylor Alexander William Gomez Taylor Cameron Jasper Gomez Taylor Kai Elliot Gomez Mateo Robert Harison Gomez Mateo Jacob Kane Gomez Mateo Kieron Charles Gomez Mateo Connor Thomas Gomez i like the names Mateo, Eloise and Belle. ideas; Adele; Adelie Adella Adeline Adelina Adelaide Eloise; Eleanor Louisa Elena Elissa Lylah; Lilah Lily Lilia Lillian Delilah Lilliana Lilith Belle; Isobel Isabelle Isabella Annabelle Bayah; Briar Brianne Brianna Melodee; Melody Melanie Brooklynn; Brooke Ekaterina-

Answer 5

To me, the trick is that they sound nice together. They'll sound nice together if they're not too weird. Guillermo and George sound really odd together, but Callista and Olivia sound good together to me, even though Olivia is much more common than Callista.

My favorite twin names are Charlotte and Sebastian.

I also like Allegra and Rowena because they both mean "joy".

My other favorite set is Fergus and William, which both mean "strong man".

Answer 6

It depends on what style of names they are. I think a Helena and a Katherine would be find because they are both old fashioned although Helena is uncommon and Katherine is fairly popular for example.

But Katherine and Kayleana don't go because they styles are too different.

YKWIM? I think it would help more to know the names.

Answer 7

I'd keep them similar, but not matchy.

Examples:

Grant & Cole
Nolan & Jack
Lachlan & Finn
Sebastian & Roman

Audrey & Hope
Linnea & Elina
Anneliese & Genevieve
Freya & Isla
Imogen & Louisa


Grant & Audrey
Linnea & Matthias
Lachlan & Maeve
Sebastian & Cecilia
Tiernan & Eliora

Answer 8

Boy twins:
Blaine and Heath
Landon and Logan
Parker and Preston

Girs twins:
Haley and Hannah
Madison and Mackenzie
Jayden and Jaylen

Boy/girl twins:
Hayden and Hunter
Cameron and Christian
Logan and Luke

Answer 9

It's okay to do one common name and one uncommon name. They can still match, too, if you like same letter names.
Caitria & Carolyn
Daphne & Danielle
Tabitha & Taylor
Sidra & Stacy
Maiara & Meredith

Answer 10

i dont think it matter much. the only thing i hate is names that rhyme.

Girl/Girl names i love are Jade Marie and Isabella Diane

Boy/Boy names i love are Braxton Nathaniel and Julian Phillip

you can use 1 of the above names for Boy/girl combo.

Answer 11

I just think it's sort of weird since one has a name that everyone has and the other one has a name that sounds made up.
