My sons are Charles and Henry. Our runner up names and their middle names were - William, Edward, James, Peter, Graham, Arthur, and Thomas.

I don’t like the idea of a one syllable name (Graham, John) with a one syllable middle name.

This matters so, so little. How often do you say your whole name together?

I agree, my son’s syllables are 1/1/2 and it’s a good flow.

I love Graham.

Do you care if one twin has a name like Graham without a nn and the other has a common nn?

Andrew and Charles

Nicholas and Gabriel (Nick and Gabe)

Reuben and Simon

Nicholas and Timothy

Oliver and Nathan

Wouldn't recommend Abe and Gabe, but maybe one of those with another name!

I sort of agree with the PP who suggested one traditional and one slightly interesting, but I think I'd lean toward both slightly interesting/outside the top 25 boy's names.

Miles and Joshua
Samuel and Adam
Wesley and Simon
Arthur and Harrison
Graham and Elliott

Every time I answer my business phone. You?

You use your middle name when answering the phone?! “Hello, June Ann Smith here”.

Sounds juvenile, PP.

Including your middle name? Weird.

I’m really loving the name Peter right now. It totally fits your criteria.

I love James, Graham and Andrew too. Henry is currently too popular for me but also a great name.

Henry, James and Graham are all good.

Other considerations: Harry, Andrew, Charlie/Charles, Samuel

Robert and Andrew

Edward and Andrew

Jonathan/ Simon

See, I think traditional is one of those things that things where names should more or less match.

Having said that, I don't think Simon is any less traditional than Jonathan. Simon and Daniel would be great.

I'll add Nathan and Nathaniel and Alexander to the list.
