Names for our Twins
We are having twins, not sure of the genders yet. We have our girls names picked out Charlotte Haley and Nora Allison( or Alice). All four of those names are family names. Charlotte is after my dad. Haley is dh's middle name, as well as his dad, and grandfather's middle names. Nora is after my mother, and Allison (Alice) is after dh's sister. We are struggling with boys names though. I don't know if I want to use family names as first names or not with boys names. If we did use family names we would use Anderson Caldwell (after both my grandfathers) and either Garrett Haley or Jeremiah Haley, after dh's dad. His name is Gerald and so we were looking for alternatives since we don't like the name Gerald, and we found Garrett which is derived from Gerald, and then Jeremiah has the same starting sound as Gerald. We just aren't sure whether we want to use those or not. I think it would be really special, but at the same time, there are a lot of boys names that I would love to use that have no family significance, but we would still use family names for middle names. So what do you think? Our last name is Pickle if that helps any. Also I love the name William and really want to use it, however Will Pickle sounds like dill pickle. Do you think that is a big deal? Here is what we have come up with so far:Anderson Caldwell and Garrett Haley
Anderson Caldwell and Jeremiah Haley
Jacob Haley and Elijah Bishop (Jake and Eli)
William Haley and Elijah Bishop (Will and Eli)
Jacob Haley and William Bishop (Jake and Will)
Elijah Haley and Owen Bishop (Eli and Owen)
Elijah Haley and Zachary Bishop (Eli and Zac)
Jacob Haley and Lucas Bishop (Jake and Luke)
William Haley and Lucas Bishop (Will and Luke)
Jonathan Haley and William Bishop (John and Will)Also if we have one of each gender then the girls name will be Charlotte Haley. Which of the above boy's names would you pair with it (middle name Bishop)? Thanks for your help!
