[Opinions] Re: IVF & Possible Twins!
I wish you all the very best in your journey to becoming parents. Fingers crossed it all goes really well the first time for you. My faves are: Lillian & Audrey (Addy/Addie) - Although I really dislike Addy / Addie as a nn for Audrey. Audrey is such a beautiful name it doesn't need a nn in my opinion.
Lillian & Faith
Lillian & Grace (Gracey)
Lillian & Hannah
Lillian & Olivia (Liv or Livie)
Lillian & Sophia (Soph) - I don't think Sophia needs a nn
Lillian & Sophie (Soph) - I don't think Sophie needs a nn
Lillian & Aaron
Lillian & David
Lillian & Nathaniel (Nate)
Lillian & Owen
Lillian & Samuel (Sammy, Sam)
Aaron & David
Jesse & David
Jacob & David
Nathaniel & David (Nate)
Owen & David
Samuel & David (Sam)Just a side note: If you had two boys, would you give the other son your DH's fn as his mn, if you used David as a fn for one of the boys? You wouldn't want one boy being named after his dad and the other not, that could be asking for trouble!! heheSarah -

It's not weird if one son is named after the father and the other one isn't... Or do you mean it's different with twins?

No it's not a weird concept for one DS to be named after his father and another DS not. But I personally think that with twins, particularly when they are the same gender, there is a lot of added competition between them that you don't want to add to! My dad is a twin, he has a twin brother and they were always referred to as "the twins" and my uncle competed with my dad. I just think it's nicer to have both named after their dad.
