[Opinions] Re: What would you name twins? middle name optional
I wouldn't wish twins on myself. Not because I couldn't take care of them; I take care of twins on a daily basis (I'm a NICU nurse). I wouldn't wish them because they make pregnancies harder, births more mysterious, and infancy more risky (i.e. premature birth, twin to twin transfusion, NICU stays, etc). Now, if I had them I would welcome them but I would never wish for it unless I could also be promised I would carry them to 40 weeks and take them home right away with no medical problems!Anyway, I would name mine:Amelia Josephine & Eleanor Isabel (honoring middle names)
Henry Robert & Jack Nathaniel (honoring middle names)
Amelia Josephine & Henry Robert

Its true, the more a woman is pregnant with, complications increase. Though people give birth to perfectly healthy twins all the timeYes, complications are higher than a single birth-absolutely but its not as high or as given as giving birth to say, quads or octoplets and anything like that. Yikes!! I would NOT be preg with that many lol!
I definitely would prefer girl twins though. I like all your combos. I especially love Amelia Josephine & Henry Robert (:

I quite like your combos. Jack and Henry is especially appealing on twins. Also - I agree with you on your health assessments for multiple birthing. Luckily, my sister and I were full term, 7lb babies (whoa mama!), but I know plenty of people who had trouble carrying multiples.
