Re: What would you name a set of twins?
in reply to a message by Raven Briar
I'd choose my favourites, because they do work together (I think) and I love them.
Pandora Valencia Fae & Caspian Sherlock Walter 'Pandora & Caspian'
Caspian Sherlock Walter & Ptolemy Lysander George 'Caspian & Ptolemy'
Pandora Valencia Fae & Artemis Clio Elizabeth 'Pandora & Artemis'
For themes, it depends on how I feel about the names. Two names I love for girls, Marigold & Lavender have an obvious flower theme, but I wouldn't mind using them together if I had to, because I adore both names. Pandora and Artemis are both from Greek mythology, and all the firsts in my twinsets are seven letters long. I'd prefer a more subtle theme, but if I really love the names, I don't care if there is a really obvious connection. I generally try to avoid couples names for siblings (like Tristan & Isolde, Arthur & Guinevere etc.) because I find it kinda weird to have siblings with the names of romantically involved individuals lol.

I love your names. Caspian, Ptolemy, Pandora, and Artemis each have a fanciful and fun feel. They're somewhat unique yet familiar from history, myth, and literature.
Pandora and Artemis is actually a really nice theme. It isn't overboard matching, but the two names compliment each other and look like they belong.

Thank you :). Artemis is pretty new to the mix, I'm always going back and forth with the second girl name, but I think she fits in so well I couldn't resist.
