Help[Opinions] Need name help... twins! :-)
Well, we're having twins (in February) and I have no idea where to start. :P
I am pretty sure that they're going to be girls (just mama's instinct, never been wrong!) but boy suggestions are welcome too!
My oldest is Juliet Rose, just for reference. We like Shakespearean names, so none of those are out of the running. I like literary names. I tend toward old-fashioned names, or nature names. Themes and same initial letters are okay with me. I even wouldn't mind two more J names.
Any suggestions are welcome and much appreciated! :)

Congrats! :)
I remember that you liked Jonas for a boy (as your SO's fn is Jason, right?, and it's an anagram). So if you want to go the J-route and you do have at least one boy, I think Jonas is a good idea. Otherwise, I'm not a big fan (personally) of siblings all having the same first initial. :-/
Some suggestions (sorry for any repeats):
Beatrice
Augusta
Adelaide
Diana
Cecily
Laurel
Lena
Leila
Allegra
Lavinia
Cordelia
Eleanor
Octavia
Ophelia
Gwendolyn
Nora
Nola
Aurelia
Adrian
Miles
Everett
Dominic
Ephraim
Ambrose
Leopold
Oscar
Oliver
Cassius
Sebastian
Jasper
Samuel
Malcolm
Lucian
Asher
Graham
Duncan
Henry

I like Viola, and it has a similar quirkiness about it that Juliet has - it's pretty, feminine, a real name, but definitely not heard everyday. And I think she's a great character, too; all spunky. :)
What are the convulsions of a city in comparison with the insurrections of the soul?
Man is a depth still greater than the people.

Why can't you just use 'Re: the post' like everyone else?! It's annoying!
