39 Pairs of Twin Baby Names That Are Twice as Nice

When picking twin baby names, you have to think twice as hard. There are lots of factors to consider! As with all baby names, you might choose a family member to pay tribute to or choose a baby name that reflects your cultural heritage...but then there’s the added question, of do these twin baby names complement one another?

Perhaps you want twin names with the same initial or maybe you’re looking for a rhyming pair of twin names. Or maybe you want twin names that go together in meaning. While choosing twin names may seem like double the work, we’re here to make it a little easier with this list of cute, creative twin baby name ideas!

Twin Boy Names

Adler & Efron: Both old-fashioned in feeling yet easy to spell and pronounce, these nature names for boys refer to birds (Adler is an eagle from the German and Efron means bird or lark in Hebrew), giving them a secret twin meaning for your boys. (Related: Browse more old-fashioned baby names!)

Armond & Desmond: Rhyming or same first-sound names are popular with twins, but consider mixing things up for your boys with names that end with the same sound...like this handsome pair.

Austin & Dallas: This is just one example of a fun and fresh way to name your twin boys after places. Pick cities in the same state (Texas gives you lots to choose from), or from a whole continent, like Paris and Berlin, for your tiny travelers-to-be. 

Baker & Mason: Two cute, occupational twin boy names that roll off the tongue and sound adorable together. Baker and Mason will have their own identities, yet they work in tandem. 

Brandon & Landon: You knew we’d throw some rhymers on this list, and this pair of twin boy names doesn’t disappoint. Both names have a contemporary feel and earthy meanings—both translate to “hill” and derive from the English. 

Caledon & Ocean: A beautiful, natural duo, Caledon is “hard or rocky land” which meets Ocean perfectly for the boho or nature-minded parents. (Related: Check out more nature baby names!)

Clifton & Breaker: Like the pair above, these symmetrical nature names are adorable for your twin baby boys. Clifton is a “place on a cliff” and Breaker is reminiscent of the breaking of waves, giving a soulful and stormy feel to this set of twin boy names.

Finn & Jack: Classic, simple, and one-syllable for the parents who like nautical stripes, monograms, and old-school charm. Other toss-in’s if you’re considering these cute twin names for your boys would be Ben, Grant, or James.

Harrison & Hutchinson: They start and end the same, for lovely symmetry any twin parent can get behind. It goes without saying that Harry and Hutch are pretty darn adorable nicknames, too.  

Hudson & Halcyon: There’s so much to love about this combo, including their mirrored opening and closing sounds. The pair also offers complementary themes: Hudson is a famed New York river conjuring water views and big dreams, and Halcyon is a bird, a dream state, and shade of sky blue.

Jacob & Noah: If you’re into popular baby names for boys, why not utilize two chart-toppers in conjunction? Both of these twin names are two-syllable biblical names for boys, giving them more in common than their popularity. This combination is one of the top picks for boy-boy twin names in the US!

Odion & Kehinde: This matching set of surprising twin baby boy names mean “first-” and “second born” respectively; that’s a pretty cool way to name your twins as they make their entrance. 

Radcliff & Raleigh: Alliteration is always a good idea with twins, and these similarly strong, noble names for boys do the trick without being cutesy at all. They both have natural meanings (Radcliff means “red cliff” and Raleigh is a meadow of deer, as well as a North Carolina place name), so the pair works well together for your twin boys.

Wayne & Zayne: If you’re looking for a rhyme, this is about as dignified as it comes. Wayne meaning “maker of wagons” and Zayne translating to “God is gracious” are both English names falling outside the top 200, so they’re rare enough to feel special for your little boys.

Twin Girl Names

Antonella & Annabella: This pair of twin girl names rolls right off the tongue; what’s even cuter is that Antonella means “first born,” so it makes a great start to a set of twin names. Annabella means “loving,” a sweet sentiment to impart on Baby Sister. 

Audrey & Marilyn: In a nod to Old Hollywood, consider naming your girls after two classic starlets. Everyone will gush over this pretty pair.

Bryanne & Lianne: They rhyme, yet are different in meaning to allow each girl her own separate flair. Bryanne is “strong, virtuous, and honorable” while her twin’s name means “youthful.”

Clara & Dara: A precious rhyming pair with a vintage feel, yet both are on the rise again. Clara means “bright and clear” while Dara is a “pearl of wisdom.”

Emma & Ella: Similar girly names perfect for a set of twins; both are very popular right now but will still feel special for your girls.

Faith & Grace: Word names with complementary meanings are a really sweet choice for twin girl names. The fact that these two each contain one syllable gives them extra symmetry for a perfect pairing.  

Farrah & Asha: Unique twin names that look pretty together and have related meanings are a win for your babes-to-be. Farrah means “happiness,” and Asha means “hope.”  

Hannah & Heather: With the same first initial and syllable count, you’ve got enough similarity to make this a perfect pairing. Hannah means “grace” and Heather is a purple wildflower, two beautiful baby girl names for your sweet twins on the way.

Linnea & Lilianne: A pair of floral, cute twin girl names with the alliteration factor many parents look for. Linnea means “twinflower,” giving it extra twin cred, and Lilianne, meaning “flower,” works perfectly with it.

Marea & Marilla: Alliteration and a slant rhyme? We’re here for it. This offbeat pair looks and sounds adorable together, and its meanings mesh beautifully. Marea is “drop of the sea” and Marilla translates to “shining sea.”  

Rafaella & Graziella: If you’re making a nod to Italian roots or just a love of that country, lyrical Italian baby names could be perfect for your twins. This pair is sweet together not only because they have a similar structure and the same syllable count, but also because their meanings are very beautiful in conjunction. Rafaella is “God has healed,” and Graziella means “grace.” 

Ruby & Pearl: Two precious gem names plucked right from the global naming charts; these are both fairly popular at the moment, but together they feel as rare as the valuable jewels themselves. 

Twila & Lila: A rhyming pair of fun ones that feel both effortless and unique at once. Twila technically refers to weaving but imparts the essence of twilight in pronunciation; and Lila means “night,” which is a cute reflection.

Verena & Vivianne: Two Latin names that start the same but end uniquely for your little pair of beauties. Verena means “integrity” and Vivianne means “life,” for a powerful set of twin girl names to consider.

Twin Boy and Girl Names

Ada and Oberon: These adorable baby names both start with vowels, but even better, they share one lovely meaning to impart on your twin boy and girl– “noble.” 

Bonny & Bobby: With vintage names on the rise, this sweet pairing earns major heart eyes. It’s a ‘50s-feeling, girl-boy alliteration match meaning beautiful (Bonny) and “bright fame” (Bobby). As such, each one is a sweet, old-school nickname with some Hollywood charm in its meaning. 

Coco & Karl: The fashion-forward mama knows why these two are here together; not only do their first initials share a sound, but the two creative forces behind the House of Chanel (early, and modern) are a gorgeous set of names for metropolitan boy and girl twins.

Gemella & Tomasso: These gorgeous Italian baby names both mean “twin,” making them a very cute set for yours. If the Italian spellings are too outrageous for your family, consider shortened versions Gemma and Thomas for a similar yet pared-down feel.

Juniper & John Paul: We are loving the reflective consonant sounds of this surprising pairing. While Juniper is less classic than its male counterpart, the flower name is on the rise for girls and sounds absolutely darling with the old school French baby boy name meaning “Jehovah has been gracious.”

Leighton & Lincoln: The “L” names’ meanings both pertain to towns. Plus, they sound absolutely adorable together for boy-girl twin names.

Mara & Marco: Short, unique boy-girl twin names meaning “bitter” and “war-like” respectively, you might consider this dynamic duo for your sweet babes.

Marcy & Darcy: Who doesn’t have a weak spot for rhyming twin baby names? This girl-boy pairing is romantic and darling, of a bygone era.

Shipley & Shepard: The homegrown Southern sweetness abounds with these adorable names for your boy-girl twins. Aside from sounding perfect together, their meanings are darling as well: Shipley translates to “sheep meadow” and Shepard is a herder of sheep. (Related: Get inspired by more southern baby names!)

Sicily & Rome: Another place-name pairing, this one is better suited for girl-boy twins. The Italian locales add an air of sophistication for your twins and will surely set them apart from the pack in school.

Starla & Skyler: Two modern twin baby names with celestial meanings that your sweet babes will adore growing up with. Nicknames Star and Sky are also precious.
