Ma is Tracy Lynn. Dad is Anthony Dominic. So... I could just do Tracy Lynn lol or Terry Lynn or Terry Llyn. And Antonia Dominica or perhaps Nella Dominica.
I like Terry Llyn and Nella Dominica best.

Thierry Marcel & Roberta AlanaMy dad always ends up as Roberta on plane tickets because it says "Robert A" but it's just typed as "ROBERTA"

My twins would then be Terrence "Terry" & Timothea "Thea" (or perhaps Timea?).

Neither one of my parents have names that have a form in the opposite gender, so this situation absolutely does not work for me.

Cecily instead of Cecil - that's easy - but what to do about Beatrice? Beator hardly bears thinking about! Cecily and Felix, I suppose, could somewhat work. Or a B name: Cecily and Bernard, or Cecily and Benjamin?

Alexander and JacquelineThere aren't any male variants of my mom's middle name or female variants of my dad's, but if I used similar meanings, it would be Alexander Lucius and Jacqueline Havilah.

Anton & PetraAnton CamillusandPetra Georgina LeonoraMom is Anna Camilla, but Anna is technically the middle name. Anton is actually her grandfather's name, so I thought it would be nice to use it even tough Anna and Anton aren't actually related. Fun fact: My mom has always said that she was almost named Petronella, but my grandmother says it was going to be Petra - which my dad now became instead.

Kendra and LorcanKeeping the first 3 letters the same...Using the names they go by: Bryony and Dario
Using their other names: Kendra and Lorcan
Using their first names: Bryony and Lorenzo
Using their middle names Kenina and DariusSo, Kendra Bryony and Lorcan Dario, because I like Kendra more than Bryony, and Darius kind of runs into my surname.

Abby Barbara & Errol AllenAbby Barbara & Errol Allen My parents' names do not switch genders, so this is the closest I'm going and why the combos are terrible lol. I like Abby, Errol is okay, and Allen has the Flash reference, so I prefer it over Alan.

For the girl: either Marceline, Celine or Marsaili. I think Marceline would be the best option, with Celine as her nickname.For the boy: there aren't that many options. Chantal doesn't have any masculine forms. If we go with the "song" association, I guess Carol is an option, but I don't like that as much. If we go with the "stony" meaning, there's Peter. If we go with a similar sounding name, there's Chance and Chandler, and maybe even Cathal. I like Cathal a lot, but I don't think it's very usable where I live, so the best option would be Peter, which goes okay with Celine as well (and I don't dislike Peter at all, so I'm not heartbroken).

Reuben Ira & Carole JoséeThis assumes a standard mom/dad family unit, but ok...
Reuben Ira & Carole Josée- for Rebecca Irene (Neither name has a male variant)
- for Charles Joseph
I would probably consider those IRL, too.

John Ragnar and Dinah WilhelminaMom's name is Jane and her middle initial is R. Neither of my dad's names have a feminine form or anything close to it, so I just used his initials.

Thomasina "Sina" and Charles "Charlie".

Camillus (Zoe Camille) and Antonia (Joseph Anthony)But I would so so not want to do this

Our answers were pretty much alike. But I really wouldn't want to use those names either.

Kathleen & RobertThere is no male version of Kathleen, so the closest I can think of is either Kit or Kato...Robert would be either Roberta / Robina / Robyn / Bobbie
I think I like Kit & Roberta best.

My mom is Sharon Elizabeth and my dad is Donovon Ruel. Hmmm...Are Shaw and Doria close enough?

Thank you. :) His mother was quite a woman. Her name was Dare Elizabeth and was very intelligent and creative - an artist. My dad, Donovon/Don, was an artist and a musician. Dare's mom, Faye, was a very intelligent, funny, kind of quirky woman. I remember her. She was my "Ga". Dare's dad, Ruel Norman, was a physician. I don't know a lot about him. He died either before or soon after I was born. My mom gave my brother the middle name of Ruel to carry on the tradition, but Eric, my brother, has not had any children. Had I known, I probably would have given one of my boys Ruel as a middle name.
