HelpRe: Thoughts on these names for twins
in reply to a message by Arctic_Fox723
I like these ones:
Cody & Caleb
Piper & Valerie
Matthew & Michael
Tabitha & Tanner
Mitchell & Tyler
Jacob & Jackson
Vivan & Vanessa
Vanessa & Vince
Twins I’ve known or known of:
Joshua and Jordan (boys)
Abigail and Hannah (girls)
Todd and Melissa (b/g)
Jack and Jill (yes, really. They were family like two generations back)
Ronnie and Connie (boys)
Addyson and Alyssa (girls)
Tara and Jennifer (believe it or not, they’re only about 5)
Everly and Calder (g/b)
Jaden and Jeremiah (boys)
Reign and Violette (b/g)
Willow and Violet (girls)
I like alliteration, so I like it when names start with the same letter.
Names I considered 10+years ago with ours
Hudson and Hunter
Denver and Dakota
Audrey and Abigail
Quite honestly I’m pleased with the names we settled on. I still love them now. So glad we didn’t use any of those we considered!

I've met siblings named Jackson & Jillian nn's Jack and Jill.
I like Denver and Dakota though I like Dekota/Dekotah better.
Curious, does adding "te" to Violet change the pronunciation at all?
We love the name Violet but I kinda like the spelling Violette now.
Same with Ariel & Juliet, I love Arielle and Juliette but hate the spellings, Ariel & Juliet.
At one point, I considered using Hazel spelled Hazelle but everyone wanted to argue that it changes the name completely.

No, she was still called just “Violet”... at first I thought it would be pronounced “Vi-oh-lett” with emphasis on the last syllable, but it wasn’t.
I pronounce Juliet and Juliette the same, but prefer Juliet.
I do think I would pronounce Ariel and Arielle differently. I would instinctively say “Air-ee-uhl “ for Ariel, but “Air-ee-elle “ for Arielle.
I do think Hazelle changes the name. I would say it with an “elle “ on the end instead of “Haze-uhl “

I guess it is just my southern accent but I say Arielle and Hazelle with the "elle".

Probably:)
My in laws are very southern and a lot of words they say very differently than I do, being a Northern girl.
