twins' names
Gracie and Rosie. Those are their given names(I think that may be becoming more popualar?) I thought they were really sweet and went prefectly together. Occasionally their family will just call them Grace or Rose as nn. WDYTO them?

To me Gracie can be a name on its own but Rosie I think needs a foundation to it.

I like the names separately, but not together. They sound waaay too matchy. And I like them as nicknames for Grace and Rose as well (even though I liek them better than the names themselves).

Gracie and Rosie are waaay to cutesy for adults. Grace and Rose would have been more acceptable.

Like the combo and the names. There's nothing wrong with using (good) nns as fns.

I would've preferred Grace and Rose as their given names, nn's Gracie and Rosie. Gracie and Rosie, are cutesy and won't age well. Grace, is beautiful.

I know a Grace and Rose twinset too! Except those are there names and their nicknames are Gracie and Rosie. I prefer it this way, but I agree they go together well.

BACKWARDS.That is what I think :( Why not Grace and Rose with semipermanent nicknames Gracie and Rosie. That makes so much more sense. I looove Grace and Rose.

I totally agreeNicknames as given names is a massive pet peeve of mine.

Ditto...COMPLETELY backwards. I love the nicknames, but that goes against all tradition and sense, formally naming them the pet names.
