Question

Uh Oh! name dilhemma

Im having twin girls (due in 3 weeks) and up until now i was going to name them Nicola and Natasha. Nicola is being named after one of my really really good friends and Natasha, just because we like the name.

However my best friend passed away a year ago, her name was Jenni and so i was thinking of whether it would be a better idea to name them both after friends and have their names as Nicola and Jenni.

What do you think?

Answer 1

I think that is a great idea. Not only are Nicola and Jenni great names, but (no offense) I don't think it's a great idea to name twins with similar names or that sound alike or look alike. Same letter isn't so bad, but still a little goofy. Like those people who have 6 kids all starting with the letter J. Either choice sounds cute together, but I think it's a very sweet gesture to name one after the late friend.
