Baby Names for Twins
by: Sarah Mitchell
Choosing a baby name for your new
born can be quite a stressful decision. With thousands upon
thousands of names at your disposal, you may begin to feel a
little over whelmed. Well, for twins, you can double the
trouble! This article is aimed at helping soon to be moms and
dads of twins to choose those perfect baby names.
Using anagrams for naming twins
One way of choosing baby names for twins
is to take one name that you like and rearrange the letters to
make another name. A few examples of this are:
Reva & Vera
Ira & Ria
Mary & Myra
If you are a fan of traditional baby
names, then your choices are slightly limited with this option.
But, if you don't mind bending the rules a little, then you can
play around with this idea forever.
Using synonyms for naming twins
Another idea for choosing baby names for
twins is synonyms! A synonym is a word (or a baby name in our
case) that has a similar or exact meaning of another word. So,
you might want your twins to both have names that mean 'flower'.
An example of this would be:
Eve & Zoe
Yasmin & Lala
Dahlia & Daisy
Camellia & Heather
All of these names refer to a flower in
general or a particular flower, although they are all quite
unique from one another. For example, Heather is an English
name, whereas Camellia is a Latin name. If you would like to

type in a meaning or part of a meaning and a list of names that
corespond to that meaning will appear.
Reversing names for twins
Choosing baby names for twins can
sometimes be as easy as spelling a name you like, backwards! As
you can imagine, this will only work for a small selection of
names, but if you have the time to sit down with a pen, paper
and some patients then you will eventually find some that you
are fond of. An example of this would be:
Aiden & Nadia
Other tips for naming twins
Some other tips for naming twins are to
use names beginning with the same letter, use names that rhyme,
or even use names that have no connection between them what so
ever. Sometimes parents get so wrapped up in trying to choose
the perfect names for their twins that they forget the fact they
have the option of choosing two names that have no connection at
all. Regardless of what option you choose to name your twins,
you should take the time to sit down and put some serious
thought into your decision. Best of luck to you!
