I would since I was getting to name the other twin whatever I wanted	52%
I would if that cousin and I didn't live near each other and never saw or spoke with each other	64%
I would since our kids won't have the same last name and Benjamin has multiple nickname options	79%
I wouldn't since it'd be kind of weird for two cousins to give their children the same first name	3%
I wouldn't since it might look like we stole the name from my cousin	3%
I wouldn't if my sister occasionally spoke to our cousin and cared if I offend her by using the name	6%
I wouldn't consider it my choice. If I get to name one twin, my husband should get to name the other	33%
