Hi all, First time posting on this awesome website! Im 21 years old and I am due with twin boys March 6th. I want to name one of them Dakota (Unsure of the midle name, yet) But cant seem to find anything that goes well with Dakota and i really want to use that name, I need help! I like unique names but not too out there, Thanks for your time.

I have to agree with Bear that Dakota is one of those trendy names that seems really cool now, but will just seem dated in a little while (like 80's names today). But if you really love it, then use it. There are some names I like that others on this board don't, but it's my child not theirs. :) Suggestions for Twin with Dakota - I think you may have already been given some of theseDakota & Carson
Dakota & Jackson
Dakota & Wyatt
Dakota & Rance
Dakota & Shane
Dakota & Cole
Dakota & Bryce
Dakota & Hunter
Dakota & Parker
Dakota & LeviSome middle names that might sound good with Dakota:Dakota James
Dakota Shane
Dakota BramLet me know if you like anything!~ EM

Hello, congratulations and welcome!I'm not against place names as fns. But Dakota seems to be one of those trendy, flash in the pan names. Here today, gone tomorrow. Sorry, but I just don't like it. I can't imagine a 40 year old man named Dakota.But just because you're so sweet, how about:Dakota Thomas (Thomas = twin)
Dakota Nicholas
Dakota Patrick
Dakota Matthias
Dakota Eli
Dakota Nathaniel
Dakota Jeremy
Dakota Andrew
Dakota Jacob
Dakota Joseph
Dakota Simon
Dakota Levi
Dakota ZacharyHmm. I'm not big on Old Testament / Biblical names, but they do seem to combine nicely with Dakota. At least they do to me. Perhaps it adds to the frontier feeling of the name. My rule of thumb on unusual names is to pair it with a more conventional name. It anchors the name to reality and avoids the impression that you are trying too hard.Have you considered names for the other twin? Feedback is always appreciated. Thanks!
