Common questions

What twin name goes with Alice?

Matched same-sex options: Zelda, Nora, Clara, Lucy.
For a boy twin: Isaac, Wesley, Robert, Warren. Each one sits well next to Alice without echoing it. 19 of the 20 names on this page have the same 2-syllable length as Alice.

Should twin names match more than sibling names?

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

Should Alice's twin have a different first letter?

School registers, medical forms and camp lists often go by first initial and surname. A twin of Alice whose name also starts with "A" can be harder to distinguish from Alice on some records, so the twin score rewards a different first letter. None of the names on this page start with "A".

What are these scores based on?

The popularity ranks for Alice and each twin name are from US Social Security Administration records. The pairing score is our own, based on style, length, first letter and sound — the how-we-score page walks through it.
