For a twin who was male he would have been either Brendan or Brandon, both of which I really like. For a mn they either would have used Dean, Moody, Robert, John, or Tatum.

For a female twin probably Nicole Louise or Gabriella Louise. My younger sister is named Nicole Louise but they almost named her Gabriella Louise. So if my twin was Nicole Louise and they decided to have more children, so I'd still have a younger sister, maybe they would have used Gabriella. I really don't know what they would have used as a mn, but unused female family names would have been Marian, Monica, Jean, Angle, Elizabeth, Ella, Maude, and Maria.

They never would have used Ella as a mn with Gabriella as the first but they could have used it as a nn for Gabriella since they hated the nn Gabby. That is actually why they didn't use Gabriella because they were worried that if they had a daughter named Gabriella she'd get called Gabby, but I feel that Ella, Ellie, and Elle all work just as well as nn's. Oddly one of our younger cousins ended up getting named Gabrielle nn Gabi, so I've always wondered if my aunt and uncle would have chosen a different name if my sister had been named Gabriella, I feel that they would have but you never know.
