Single-syllable twin boys

Can you suggest some good single-syllable boys names, especialy paired up for twins. We don't like alliteration or rhyming.

Some of the names we have thought of include Hart, Jude, Trent, Grant, Rhys, Reed, Gage, Tate, Cole, Piers or Pierce or Price, Clark, Flynn. Blake is my DH and he loved his name growing up because it was somewhat unusual, and we want the same, not too popular not too out-there. I love Dex, but does it sound like it should be short for Dexter?

What about Payne as in the golfer Payne Stewart? Does is make you think of "pain" too much?

Also, one boy must have Jameson for a MN, so any complete name suggestions would be appreciated.

Rhys Jameson and Gage Davis

I love the MN Davis paired with the MN Jameson...deinitely a theme.

And I think Rhys is definitely a winner. I love it with brother Gage and I also like it with brother Peirce (or Peirs...the latter may match better).

Rhys Jameson and Peirce Davis (that is only if the LN doesn't end with the hard Sss sound.

Good luck and congratulations.

This is an easy one for me, as my two favorite boy names (single syllable or other wise) are:

LANE

and

SCOTT (nn Scooter)

Lane Jameson and Scott Cameron, maybe? Or maybe Lane Alexander and Scott Jameson?

I know triplets named Jack, Penn, and Cole. Always thought that was a cute combo.

Here are my favorite combos:

Scott and Lane

Brandt and Piers

Brooks and Miles or Niles

Reid and Wynn

Payne and Reese or Chase

Good luck to you!

Rhys & Piers are my two favorite one syllable boys' names from your list. Payne is too much like pain and is heavily teasable for that.
