150 Most Popular Names for Twins

After the most popular baby name list was officially released, so many of us scanned it looking for our baby's name or inspiration on what to name (or what not to name) our little bean. But even more fascinating is the list of the top baby names for twins. Of course, being a twin mom I would think that. But naming twins isn't an easy thing to do — you need two names at the same time! It's hard enough to come up with one baby name that you and your partner both like.

Looking at the list, I want to say that twin parents are quite creative, we like to rhyme, and we love alliteration. I have boy/girl twins that I named Hunter and Penelope — they didn't make the list though Hunter did show up on the boy/boy twin list with the name Hayden. Love that. Take a look at the most popular twin names, broken down to show girl/girl, boy/boy, and girl/boy twin name pairings.
