[Opinions] WDYT- twin boys
How do you like twin boys named Keegan and Kiernan (yes Kiernan not Kieran http://www.babynames.com/Names/name_display.php?n=Kiernan ). Both are celtic/gaelic origin. I realize they are sort of matchy, but I kind of like them together. Especially because they are a very Irish family, all redheads! They have an older sister named Kathleen ...a very K-oriented family.

Too close, imo, and therefore too cutesy. I do know one little boy named Kiernan. He has a brother named Lagan (sounds like loggin').

I like both names, even together as a set of twins. I don't think they clash at all. They're very nice. I like Kathleen too.----

No, I don't like it. A pair of twins might have a tough enough time developing individuality without having twinny names to deal with. Besides, I think it's confusing--my family regularly mixes up Jeannie (my sister) with George (our cat), so imagine what would happen if we had a Keegan and a Kiernan to call!

I know a family with 8 kids who all start with K. They were Kieran, Kiki (I don't know her real name,actually), Katrina, Katherine (Katie), Karen, Kyle, Kaden, and Kaleb. It was pretty impressive!
Anyway, I never liked Keegan. I don't know, I just don't like it. But Kiernan's pretty cool, if not my favorite. It's a good couple, I think, if not my top choice of names.

They clash.Not only do I don't like the names but I don't think they look or sound good together. Ned Flat: Why are you acting like this?
Yakko: We're not acting. We really are like this.

Kieran, or better yet Ciaran, is a great name. I can't say the same about Keegan. Together, they are much too "twinny" for me._______________________________________________________________Oops. I just realized the name is Kiernan, as in the surname. I don't care for it either.Unless these are family surnames, I don't like either one.
