Met a pair of 'godly' twins today
Artemis and Apollo, go by Missy and Paul, respectively. They're high school seniors

Wow, I love Artemis and Apollo! Kudos to the parents. That takes guts. Still, it's a shame the twins have to be called Missy and Paul. ;-) BTW, Artemis is Anna's fave new name so I may end up with a grandchild named Artemis.

That is ridiculously cool. My cat's name is Apollo, so it's kind of weird to see it used on a person, but I like it.

It's almost as if......they are superheros undercover, ready for that opportune moment to pop into the phone booth!

I don't like those names at all. That's just me though. I don't feel inclined to name my children after pagan gods. Just not my style.It is some people's style, however. I think as a pair of twins it is almost too much. Even with the nicknames, wow, this is taking the god and goddess naming above and beyond.

Awesome!! haha I'd totally do that IRL as middle names. Not sure about fns, but it's still cool. And it's cool how they can use the seemingly normal Missy and Paul..:P

I used to say that if I ever had boy/girl twins, I'd name them Apollo and Artemis! Apollo would go by 'Paul' and Artemis would be 'Mimi'.Anyways, kudos to those parents for having awesome name tastes! :)

Nice to see Artemis used on a girl for a change.

This is actually pretty cool. Wearable nicknames are a must for serious business, heavy names.

Oh, wow. The parents went balls out, didn't they?

If you're going to do a theme, this is the way to do it.I love it.

Agree!The names are pretty awesome on their own, but in a twin set, they are great! But I have to say, if my name were Artemis, I would not be calling myself Missy. Ari, maybe.
