Common questions
What twin name goes with Freya?
Matched same-sex options: Stella, Phoebe, Daphne, Willa.
For a boy twin: Arlo, Otto, August, Dashiell. These scored highest for a shared feel with Freya and no rhyme. 17 of the 20 names on this page have the same 2-syllable length as Freya.
How closely should twin names match?
A little. Twins are introduced together for life, so names that sound alike and share a style work well — but names that rhyme (Freya with a near-rhyme) sound like a comedy act, so they get marked down hard here.
Should Freya's twin have a different first letter?
A lot of paperwork, from class lists to doctor's files, shows only a first initial and a surname. A twin of Freya whose name also starts with "F" can be harder to distinguish from Freya on some records, so the twin score rewards a different first letter. None of the names on this page start with "F".
Where does the data come from?
Ranks for Freya and each twin name are taken from US Social Security Administration records. How well each name goes with Freya is our own score, explained on the how-we-score page.
