Twin names

Pairs of real names. Nothing here is made up to rhyme.

Families naming twins often want two names that sit well together: a shared sound, a shared story, or simply two names they both like. These pairs are taken from names already on Navnaam. Open either name for the meaning, the Devanagari and the nakshatra. If you have both birth times, the twins report checks the Moon for each child and the numbers of both full names.
