Common questions

What twin name goes with Aaron?

Matched same-sex options: Daniel, Jacob, Mathias, Raphael.
For a girl twin: Rachel, Leah, Sara, Hannah. They share Aaron's general style but each keeps its own sound. 18 of the 20 names on this page have the same 2-syllable length as Aaron.

Should twin names match more than sibling names?

Closer than ordinary siblings, but not all the way. A twin of Aaron can share its style and length; what it should not do is rhyme with Aaron, which is the biggest penalty in the twin score.

Why avoid two names starting with "A" for twins?

A lot of paperwork, from class lists to doctor's files, shows only a first initial and a surname. A twin of Aaron whose name also starts with "A" can be harder to distinguish from Aaron on some records, so the twin score rewards a different first letter. None of the names on this page start with "A".

Where do these rankings come from?

Aaron's rank and the ranks of the twin names above come from US Social Security Administration records; how well each pairs with Aaron on style, length and sound is scored by NamePairings — see the how-we-score page.
