If you had to, what names would you choose for fraternal twin boys?

We did twins barely two days agohttp://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=2917282&board=babyI very much doubt that anyone's answers for two boys there will be different just because you've specified 'fraternal', so I suggest that you read that thread rather than taking up board space with another one.

How long of a lag time should there be between "name your baby" posts? I understand not wanting to have too many because they do take up so much board space and can get boring for daily visitors.But without concrete rules on this matter it's hard for non-daily visitors like myself (who may want to post on this thread if they missed the other thread) to know what is the appropriate amount of time. Posts like yours discourage others from posting, as the posts are meant to, but maybe giving more concrete advice like please wait "x" amount of days before posting on a topic previously covered. Or please wait until a similar thread is off the front page. I think putting a link to a similar thread, as you did, is very helpful.
Luxianap.s. I know how quickly internet dialougue can be misunderstood so please understand this is a question on clarification on why things are the way they are here, not an attack. edit: added a coma and chaged the word "they" to "the posts"

I thinkThat a decent rule of thumb would be to scroll down the whole page. If you can still see it, even just as the title ones without the replies showing at the very bottom, don't repost. The boards do not exist in the bubble during which one visits them, so show consideration for the people who are posting by actually reading what they've been posting in your absence rather than worrying only about what you wanted to see. There is no concrete X to recommend, but due to the way they push other threads off, it is only fair to at least try to pay attention and not repeat too frequently.And no, the post like Chrisell's is discouraging her from posting the way she shouldn't, not the way she is meant to. If she were meant to post like that, it wouldn't really have been noteworthy, right?

Ok, so wait until a similar post is off the first page. I think that's reasonable. It gives more direction than saying "it's too soon". To be clear, I know the board goes on while I'm away. I asked because I want to be considerate of the community here.And I re-read my post at the end and I wasn't clear. I didn't mean to say that Chrisell's posts keep people from posting as the people are meant to (I don't know how people are "meant to" or should post, aside from the rules, that is why I asked). I meant Chrisell's posts are meant to discourage people from adding their posts to that thread. Anyway, it was a sidenote and not the main point of my post. I changed it to hopefully be more clear.Thanks for the response.
