    We are expecting b/b twins - hopefully no sooner than mid-December. But we're in full swing of figuring out names now that we know what we're having.

    I am personally down to two names, and trying to win my hubby over with them. But I have a couple of questions.

    1. If you name them in utero, how can you be sure that when they are delivered (I'll be doing c-sec), that they each receive the name they had before birth? Do the peri's deliver A first?

    2. My two options are:

    Brogan Carter
    Landon David

    or

    Brogan David
    Landon Carter

    I can't decide what middle names sound best with the first. The middle names have significance for us. My 4yo carries his dad's name as his middle name. So "Carter" actually incorporates the first three letters of each grandfather (CARson and TERry). "David" comes from my maiden name "Davidson."

    Any thoughts?

    I like Brogan Carter and Landon David the best.

    I believe baby A is always delivered first.

    I said whoever comes out first is Grandt. And they did switch when I had the C-section. The smaller baby was A all along and somehow B came out first!

    If you name them in utero just ask your doctor to make sure they tell you whoever is on the right when you deliver.

    Good Luck!

    I also like Brogan Carter & Landon David better. Landon sounds good to me with either middle name but I dont like Brogan with David as a middle name.
    And my peri said Baby A is labeled "A" because he is closest to your cervix so I assume he should come out first if delivered vaginally. With a C-section, I have seen on tv shows with multiples that sometimes the order has to get switched depending on how things go when they are trying to get them out.

    Brogan carter and Landon david. We knew which was which from utero because Jessy was so much smaller. Jazz was always going to be the firstborn/bigger twin. We actually had jazz for a singleton girl then picked Jesslyn to go with it.
