But I love both Tess and Elliott and think you couldn't go wrong with either choice! I think Tess Adelaide wins by a bit for me just because I like the middle name so much, too. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2053755 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 11:21:16 +0000 LibbyLou 2053755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love all of your names! I agree for your B/G set that you don't want both to sound masculine. Here's a great blog post about it that puts it very eloquently. The diagram in her response is what I'm referring to!<br /> <a href="http://www.swistle.com/babynames/2014/12/03/baby-naming-issue-a-sibling-for-a-boy-named-sage/" rel="nofollow">http://www.swistle.com/babynames/2014/12/03/baby-naming-issue-a-sibling-for-a-boy-named-sage/</a></p> <p>That being said: I think Sawyer is on the feminine side of Graham and I wouldn't assume Sawyer is a boy. (Especially with a feminine middle name). Tess is wonderful, and you can't go wrong with any pairings! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2053708 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 10:50:54 +0000 Mrsjets 2053708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love love love masculine girl names! But I agree that with b/g twins i would use a more feminine name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2053569 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 09:41:26 +0000 stiletto_mom 2053569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like all of them, actually. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2052256 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 12:57:05 +0000 BSB 2052256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the names you picked out. </p> <p>Oh, it's so cool that you are having twins and are team green!</p> <p>Can't wait for the babies to come out and find out what you are having! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2051810 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 09:45:26 +0000 LuLu Mom 2051810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I say use what name you love, even if it's more masculine (my daughter has a masculine name and I wouldn't have change it even if she was at twin.) And just stating this, I know way more girl Sawyers born in the last year than boy Sawyer's....I think this name will be turning more feminine in the very near future. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2051674 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 07:49:15 +0000 MrsBananaGrabber 2051674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Tess (or Tessa) the best of all the girl names you posted. If you're not crazy about it, have you considered Brynn as a first name for a B/G combo? You have it as a middle name, but I think it's a beautiful name that is feminine enough for the B/G combo without anyone thinking it's 2 boys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2051537 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 22:31:13 +0000 jedeve 2051537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The middle names you have for the g/g seem more feminine. Have you thought about using one of those as a name is you have b/g? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2051517 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 22:05:01 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2051517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love your B/G combo the best! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2051447 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 20:58:02 +0000 lemondrop 2051447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Tess/Tessa the best of all the girl names! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2051380 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 20:05:02 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2051380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely love Tess out of all your girl names. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2050985 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 15:49:49 +0000 Bluemasonjar 2050985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love your B/G names! Maeve and Adelaide (Grandmother's name) are on my list and I like how you used them as middle names. Both of your G/G names made me think of boys at first but they are so cute for a little girl and if it fits your style then I would totally use one in the B/G scenario.</p> <p>I am impressed that you are Team Green with twins, I think having two would be enough of a surprise for me :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2050980 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 15:43:48 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2050980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Clearly Graham is your fav B/B name, I'd choose your favorite G/G combo and use that instead of Tess/Tessa. I don't see how masculine names for B/G twins will be an issue for long. Once you let people know one baby is a girl I think it people will remember Elliot or Sawyer is the girl since those names have become popular unisex names.</p> <p>Remember back in the day when the most creative unisex B/G combo was Taylor/ Tyler? Oh, how far we have come! LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2050849 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 14:33:00 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2050849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the idea of maybe Tessa. </p> <p>I love your G/G names. My DD has a masculine name and when it came time to naming our son, we wanted to make sure he had a very boy name so it would be clear when introducing them who was who. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2050826 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 14:02:29 +0000 Synchronicity 2050826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tessa is one of my absolute favourite girl names; I love your B/G combo! I really like all of your names, though, and I think your pairings work great together! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2050762 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 13:22:53 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2050762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Funny, I really liked Tess or Tessa as the top girl name, but your explanation makes sense :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2050761 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 13:21:44 +0000 lawbee11 2050761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE your B/G names! It's actually my favorite combo of the 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/team-green-twin-naming-help#post-2050753 Mon, 02 Feb 2015 13:13:55 +0000 dreamer3311 2050753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are expecting twins this summer and are Team Green. I am one of those baby name weirdos who obsess over names. I thought we were decided on all of the names, but now I am starting to question our B/G choice. I'd love any opinions!</p> <p>G/G twins:<br /> Elliott Maeve<br /> Sawyer Brynn</p> <p>B/B twins:<br /> Graham Michael<br /> Jasper Aaron</p> <p>B/G twins:<br /> Graham Aaron<br /> Tess Adelaide</p> <p>I LOVE our G/G and B/B options but since our girl names are unisex (okay fine, somewhat masculine) I feel like they won't work in a B/G combo because everyone will assume they are both boys. So that's why we added Tess Adelaide as an option. I really do like the name but I just don't LOVE the name like I do with all the others. Should I stick with Tess or consider one of the G/G names? Am I overthinking this? Thanks everyone! </p>
