names for twins: boy and girl...

[daddy8]

Hello everyone. My partner Parker and I are adopting a set of twins. The boy has grey green eyes with brown hair and the girl has icy blue eyes with a blond brown hair color. We already have two kids named Daniel Patrick(9) and Ryan Lucas(4). We like Shiloh, Gregory, and Anthony for a boy and Ariel, Pepper which we adore, and Juliet. My name is Christopher. What do you think?

Congratulations on your twins! With Daniel Patrick and Ryan Lucas, I would choose...

Gregory Shiloh and Juliet Pepper
Anthony Shiloh and Juliet Pepper
Gregory Parker and Juliet Christine
Anthony Christopher and Juliet Parker


I just can't get behind Shiloh as a first name (too Brangelina). Ariel will always be the Little Mermaid to me and Pepper seems like a great spunky middle name, but not a good first name fit. Have you considered Piper as an alternative? Piper Christine/Christina would be a cute combo similar to both your names.

Love love love Pepper

I think Pepper Juliet is great!

I'm not really fond of Shiloh, so I think Anthony is my fave, not sure this goes with Gregory tho... Would you ever consider using you or your partners names... I like the ideas posted above by poptart

Pepper is the one you have highlighted as the one you adore, so I think it's no question.

Of your picks, I'd say Gregory with Pepper. It seems to make a good set of four, and has a good nickname. Greg and Pepper also sounds really cute together.

Congratulations and hope you love whatever names you decide on as much as the special little people they will belong to!

I really like Gregory and Juliet! I think Pepper is cute also, what about Penelope or Piper nn Pepper?

Shiloh - I think this is adorable! It makes me think of a cute country boy. I think it works well as a fn.
Gregory - I can't place my finger on my aversion to this name. I kind of feel like I like it, but at the same time I don't.
Anthony - I have an issue with An- names, I think it makes them kind of choppy.

Ariel - I know a snotty rich girl named this so I can't stand it, sorry.
Pepper - This is cute! I might do it a nn, as others have said, but I don't think it's terrible on it's own.
Juliet - I love Juliet! I think it's traditional but cute and girly but not frilly. I really like it.

I like Shiloh and Pepper, although it almost seems canine... Maybe if you used a longer name than Pepper it would even out.

Gregory & Juliet for sure

Anthony Shiloh & Pepper Juliet!

too cute!

Thank you guys! After a few days of discussion, Parker and I have settled on Anthony Shiloh Parker and Juliet Pepper Angelina, Angelina being after his mother and Parker after him. Thank you so much for your inputs on the twins names. We decided not to put three names on the adoption certificates but just use them around the kids when they are in major trouble. Thank you so much again!
