Congrats to Jeff! My firstborn is also Henry, and I have two year old twin girls (Ada and Alice). The most interesting things about twins is how incredibly different they are from each other. They were nurtured in the same way, they share the same sets of genes, but they are wholly and fully their own people from day 1. It is completely fascinating stuff.
- kittxkat 15y agoAda and Alice. Might I ask if the inspiration for those two names came from a computer background? (Ada for the first programmer, and Alice for the first Apple computer)
- dgabriel 15y agoWe are on Hacker News.... Indeed, Ada is named for Ada Lovelace, but Alice is named in honor of Lewis Carroll. We like math.
- flomincucci 15y agoLoved the names
- danellis 15y agoI bet when she gets to school Alice is going to be trying to pass secret notes to Bob.
- warren_s 15y agoJust as long as they stay away from that Eve kid, I hear she just wants to know EVERYTHING!
- hellweaver666 15y agoWasn't the Apple computer called Lisa?
- kittxkat 15y agoYes it was, I got it mixed up.
