Below are our favorite 'two of a kind' picks for matching boy-girl twin baby names. Tips for naming boy-girl twins Many parents like naming boy-girl twins with names beginning with the same letter, like Faith and Finn or Mia and Max. If that's you, check out our advanced baby name search to narrow down your list by searching for names by starting letter. Or maybe you just want to stick with a name theme; you could choose both traditional names, both nature names, or a specific origin, such as French names. You could choose names with similar syllable counts (like both short-and-sweet single-syllable names, or both longer names that come with short nicknames). Or go wild and give your twins totally unrelated names — it just might be the best way to help them stand out as individuals!

In what promises to be a huge start to summer entertainment at the prison, The Living End will belt out anthem hits such as Prisoner of Society, All Torn Down and Second Solution on Saturday, November 29 before one of the world's most iconic and spellbinding bands, Crowded House, perform twice in three days.

The ARIA Hall of Famers performed to sold out crowds last December at Sandalford Wines as part of the Red Hot Summer Tour. They are considered one of the most universally loved bands ever to tour Australia, with Don't Dream Its Over, Fall At Your Feet, Into Temptation, Something So Strong, Sister Madly and Four Seasons In One Day just some of their chart-toppers that have provided a lyrical background for multiple generations. The band still features two original members including Neil Finn, whose meticulous, indelible melodies and impressionistic lyrics have stood the test of time and earned him devoted fans across the world. Finn's sons Elroy and Liam, Mitchell Froom and Nick Seymour – who was with Finn from the band's beginning – make up the current iteration responsible or its eighth studio album Gravity Stairs, which was released last year.

Seattle Kraken avoid arbitration drama by signing Kaapo Kakko to three-year, $13.575M contract
Kaapo Kakko signs three-year, $13.575 million contract with Kraken (AP Photos) The Seattle Kraken are locking in their future with a bold move, officially signing forward Kaapo Kakko to a three-year, $13.575 million contract that extends through the 2027–28 NHL season. The 24-year-old Finn, who was acquired from the New York Rangers in a mid-season trade, has quickly earned the trust of Seattle's front office and coaching staff, carving out a crucial role in the team's offensive scheme. Seattle Kraken and Kaapo Kakko strike $13.575M deal Since his arrival in December, Kakko has made a strong impression. In just 49 games with the Kraken, he tallied 10 goals and 20 assists, blending his physical presence and high hockey IQ to elevate Seattle's attack. His January performance against the Los Angeles Kings — where he tied his career-high with three assists — further underlined his ability to produce under pressure. That showing helped solidify his spot as a top contributor, finishing the season ranked second in team points and third in assists. — SeattleKraken (@SeattleKraken) Kraken general manager Jason Botterill didn't hide his enthusiasm about the extension. 'Getting a contract done with Kaapo was a top priority this summer,' Botterill said. 'We knew quickly he'd be a big part of our team moving forward. He's got size, skill and tremendous playmaking ability, and isn't afraid of going to the net. He fit in immediately with our group, and we're thrilled to have him under contract.' Kaapo Kakko's NHL journey: From prospect to pillar Originally selected second overall in the 2019 NHL Draft by the Rangers, Kakko came to Seattle as part of a trade that sent defenseman Will Borgen and two draft picks to New York. The change of scenery has proved fruitful. Last season, split between both franchises, Kakko recorded a career-best 44 points, with 14 goals and 30 assists — showcasing consistency and an evolving offensive edge. As the Kraken continue building toward long-term success, securing Kakko sends a strong message. He's no longer just a promising prospect — he's now a cornerstone of Seattle's present and future. FAQs 1. How long is Kaapo Kakko's new contract with the Seattle Kraken? Kaapo Kakko signed a three-year deal with the Kraken, running through the 2027–28 NHL season. 2. What is the average annual value of Kakko's contract? The average annual value of Kakko's contract is $4.525 million. 3. How did Kakko perform last season with the Kraken and Rangers? Kakko recorded a career-high 44 points, including 14 goals and 30 assists across 79 games. Also Read: How will Porter Martone's NCAA decision impact the Flyers' long-term roster plans?

IND vs ENG: 'Don't overcook it too much' - Former England pacer warns Ben Stokes despite 3rd Test heroics
England captain Ben Stokes bowls during a net session at Emirates Old Trafford (Photo by) India need to win the penultimate Test of the five-match series against England in order to stay alive in the contest. A win for the hosts will put the series victory out of reach for the Shubman Gill-led side. As such, the fourth Test, set to commence on Wednesday, July 23, holds crucial significance. In the third Test at Lord's, England have their skipper Ben Stokes to thank for his relentless pursuit of victory, helping his side gain the upper hand. Reflecting on Stokes' stunning all-round performance, former England pacer Steven Finn praised his daring approach. "If you dangle that carrot of competitiveness in front of him, he's going to chomp on it all day long. And he sensed the need for someone to grab the game by the scruff of the neck, both on the fourth evening and the fifth morning. And he did it and he ran with it," said Finn, speaking on BBC 5 Live Sport. However, he also admitted concerns over Stokes overexerting himself, a feeling previously echoed by Joe Root. "Every time he bowls a long spell like that, you're watching with bated breath being like, 'Don't let this be the spell where he just overcooked it that little bit too much,'" said the Englishman. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Could Be the Best Time to Trade Gold in 5 Years IC Markets Learn More Undo Harry Brook press conference: On why India are scared, on field fights at Lord's and more While India did see a marathon stand from Ravindra Jadeja, the all-rounder could only watch as his batting partners fell to the relentless English attack as his side was eventually bowled out. Outlining what sets Stokes apart, Finn said, "He's a magnificent cricketer, obviously. But it's that competitiveness and that desperation to win games and be the person who changes the course of games that make him extra special." Poll Who do you think will win the fourth Test between India and England? India England Draw England have announced their playing XI for the fourth Test, with just one change: injured spinner Shoaib Bashir has been replaced by 35-year-old Liam Dawson. England playing XI for fourth Test vs India : Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Ben Stokes (c), Jamie Smith (wk), Liam Dawson, Chris Woakes, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer.
