Help! The Twins Need Nicknames...

in #life6 years ago

I'm almost caught up to date on the twin blog but I've realized it's getting harder and harder to simply call them "the twins" or "our girls."

Sometimes I need to designate between the two, but I don't want to just use their initials. And right now, I'm not sure I want to share their names either. Who knows what it will be like for our kids growing up? I mean, when everyone finds out that they stand to inherit my Steem "empire," a little anonymity might be helpful. LOL

So other than Thing 1 and Thing 2, any suggestions?

I was thinking fish names might be cute (okay, that sounds a little weird) but in keeping with the Steemit archetype of minnows and whales ...

Bubbles and Guppy?

Chubs and Koi?

What do you think? Please leave your comments below or vote on someone else's suggestion. Hopefully, I'll be able to give them nicknames in my next update on Sunday!

Sort:  

The fish idea was exactly what popped into my head.

What about Joy and Koi?

or Koi and Bubbles?

Or Star and Coral?

Or Waves and Sandy / Sandy and Waves?

Hahaha! Only you can choose the nicknames that will match and stick! Good luck and have fun with it!

Those are good ideas...i couldn't think of any good names though.

These are really good too! Joy and Koi is cute, I also like Koi and Bubbles. Looking forward to see what you choose @helenoftroy

It is serious business for a mother... lol
even choosing nicknames!

I too can't wait to hear what she thinks and what she comes up with!

Yes, even harder than choosing their real names! LOL I keep looking at them and going through the nicknames. I even tried calling them by different ones to see how they responded ... I'm terrible at decision-making when it comes to things like this. In a crisis, I can handle it, but trivial things? Nope.

Water theme seems good....maybe Beta and Snorkles?
Ariel(sp?) and Moana? Two movie characters?

And I agree anonymity for our kids in our Online presence is a great idea!

Though we try to steer clear of Disney... I can see how those two could work! Fun, fun!

I honestly really love the idea of Bubbles and Guppy! I'll try to think of another suggestion too and let you know :)

What do you think about

bony and Caty

I suggest Candy and Cream, sweet girls :)

I feel this is mostly serious... and still I am tempted to come up with some silly.... and slightly embarrassing names.

  • cute and toot
  • tinkles and wrinkles
  • nancy and smancy
  • bear and claire
  • wiggles and ann

And then, of course, they will need their own animated GIFs. XD

Too hilarious! My husband was offering similar suggestions, so you're in good company! And GIFs ... he has entire conversations in GIFs. I will be sure to pass these along and see what he thinks.

wooohooo! I like good company.

Though I can't say I've had conversations in Gifs. That I would like to see! :-)

Twins wow, how exciting. I would love twins, are they your first?

As for nicknames:
Salt & Pepper
Lily & Rose
Bean & Bubble

Yes, they are! My husband and I are in the process of adopting them right now. Here's my latest update. If you're interested, you can follow the links there to read our story about how we became parents overnight... I'm blogging their story so I can share it with them someday.

Nice, we are on the adoption waiting lists atm, about two more years and we should have a little thai person living with us.

Teeny and tiny, lol!

nice!
(until they decide it is "go time"... then we'll all be asking... "teeny and tiny.. where??"

Hugs! <3
