I am writing a story about a military family. The husband as just been declared MIA. The wife just found out she's pregnant with twins, not sure on gender combination! They already have a two year old daughter. After being gone for 2-3 years he returns to discover his family has grown.

I need names for the twins and some other minor characters. Thank you.


DH: Colton Dallas Porter (26)
DW: Brynn Autumn Porter (McCullen)

DD: Phoenix Claire (2)

Twins: Their first name should be a place. I'm going to tie in the fact that each of their children are named after a place where something important happened to them. (EX: They met in Phoenix)
DD/DD:
DD/DS:
DS/DS:



Brynn's little sister: (19):
Brynn's Best Friend (25): I would like something unusual but not to out there.

Cole's Mom and Dad
:
Cole's best friend: He is also in the military so i want something strong sounding.

Thank you in advance for your suggestions. I am pretty much open to anything.

I love a lot of your ideas!

For the twins my favorites are: India Grace and Ireland Hope. (I was actually thinking of Irelynn)

I'm not sure i like the boy names...got any others? I was thinking Dallas (since it's Cole's middle name) But i'm not set on it.

Brynn's Lil Sister: How do you pronounce the last one?

Brynn's Best friend: I LOVE Azalea. Maybe Azalea Primrose?

Cole's Mom and Dad: I"m not sure what I want for them. Something old fashioned i think. His mom is going to be VERY old fashioned woman cares for the home man brings home bacon sort of woman. And his father is probably going to be a veteran.

Cole's Best friend: Really like Ezra.

Oh, wow, I'm suprised that you even considered them...

The Twins: I like Dallas a lot, but I'll see if I can think of some others?

Male place names... I would say Roman (nickname Rome), but I don't think that counts...Aspen, Carlisle, Nile... maybe Sydney? I can't think of any more at the moment...

Brynn's Sis: What, Carys? It's like KAH-ris, I think (though, if you look up the pronunciation, you'll get something more accurate). It's Welsh, but then, so is Brynn. I've only ever heard it said a few times, but it popped into my head (with some help from a recent Nymbler search), and I couldn't get it out.

Brynn's BF: 0_o I was gonna right Azalea Primrose, but I thought the double flower name would look a bit odd - nice to find someone with a similar taste in names!

Cole's Parents: Hmm... Biblical names could work for his parent...

For his Dad; Michael, Samuel, Daniel, Peter, John, Paul, Trevor...
For his Mum; Mary/Marie/Maria, Miriam, Marian, Lillian, Sheila, Jean, Margaret, Catherine/Katherine, Sylvia...
