*UPDATE*
We've chosen the names Logan and Ava for our twins! Thank you all for your help in this thread, I really appreciate all the responses. We're now trying to choose just the right middle name for each baby. Feel free to jump to pg. 8 to view my latest reply, which includes a link to our name list. You can then give each name combo a "thumbs up" or "thumbs down." I'd love to hear what you think! Thank you so much!

PS: I'll include the link here, if it's easier: Sweetpea's Name List

Now that I know what I'm having, I'm excited to start brainstorming names for my twins! We're having a boy and a girl, and I tend to like gender specific names (not unisex). I'd love a pretty, girly name for my daughter, to make her stand out from her three brothers.

So far, the boy and girl names at the top of our list are Logan and Ava. Here are some other names I like:

BOY NAMES:

Joshua
Owen
Noah
Jeremiah
Zachary
Elijah (maybe nn Eli)

GIRL NAMES:

Eliana (possibly with the nn Ellie)
Juliana
Amelia
Liliana (maybe nn Lily)
Gianna or Giana (maybe nn Gia or Gigi)
Sophia


Any other ideas? I don't like super matchy-matchy twin names, but I'd like them to sound good together. I'd love to hear your suggestions!


ETA: I forgot about the name Elijah! I added that to my boy list above.

I think Amelia is very pretty!

My dd's name is Ava, and the little guy I'm carrying now will be names Owen. I like your list.

3M, can I ask what your DD's middle name is? I think Ava might be my favorite girl name right now, with Eliana being a very close second. But with such a short first name, what did you find the perfect middle name to be?

[ThreeMenAndALAdy]

I also have an Aydan, an Evan and an Austin. Gosh, writing it down makes it seem like I have so many kids...lol!!

Haha, I know what you mean - it's so strange for us, because we're used to just saying two names, but soon we'll be saying four! So crazy!

I really love your kids' names, btw!

4 is great. You'll love it!!! Congrats on your twins.

Ava Rose.

[sweetpea]

Ava Rose is beautiful! However, my niece (with the same last name as us) is Emma Rose, so I'm afraid that's a bit too close. But very, very pretty!

[Hobbermittens]

Just don't call them Eli and Ellie! That would be super confusing.

I like Owen and Amelia.
