Didn't want to get any hopes up before we went out this morning but we have just returned with two new additions. No names as of yet but any suggestions are very welcome. Both are boys. One is black with a ginger stripe down his nose and the other looks a bit like Nibbles (see avatar pic) but with more white and ginger than black.

Will post pictures when they've had a chance to settle in as they are very nervous.

I'm so happy. They are around eleven weeks and I just love them!

Awww brilliant news! I hope your boys settle quickly and look forward to seeing pigtures :)
 
Thanks for the replies. I texted friends but they weren't too bothered. I knew everyone here would share my excitement!

I will try for pigtures later. They seem quite nervous but I put in some carrots and suddeny they were popcorning. Soo cute. I just have no idea for names! Any ideas?!

So exciting :) I always like unusual names, how about alpha and omega? We have a cat called omega, we were going to call his little 'brother' alpha but it didn't suit him so he's Luna.
 
Congrats on your new couple of boys!

Norman and Nemo?
Nifty and Naughty?
Beaver and Badger?

I am sure that by the end of next week, you will know them better and something will have stuck!
 
Congratulations on getting your boys - where did you get them in the end?

I'm useless at names, our unexpected addition remainder nameless for a fortnight as we couldn't agree on anything!:red:(|)
 
think about your favourite cartoon, flower or tree, hobby...ie if you enjoy the water there are thousands of beautiful names that you could use that relate to your interests...my niece LOVES the cartoon ice age and so she named her bunnys Diego and Sid...so you could think of your favourite characters and see if you can use them. good luck, finding names is the fun part xx
 
salt & pepper would be cute lol, and they go together so the name kind of bonds them as brothers lol..
 
Yay can't wait to see your newbies once they have settled in. Always lovely to get new piggies.

Congratulations - cant wait to see pigtures

I probably cant offer much in the way of name ideas, not when my two boys are called Carrot and Daisy! :red Can you tell they were named by a five year old :))
 
Will definitely get some pigtures tomorrow for you. My little brother wants to call his one (black with ginger stripe down his nose) Bingo after a guinea pig on a program he watches, I think its called Pet Squad.

Still not sure about mine. Will post tomorrow when I've hopefully decided a name or maybe you lot can help with names once you've seen him!

They're surprisingly confident and wander round the cage together when me and mum are there. Bit more cautious of my brothers but we've only had them half a day so I'm surprised by how settled they are already.

So happy to finally have them!

Promised pigtures. Bingo is black with ginger stripe down his nose. Other one is mine. Toying with the name Buttons. Any other ideas?

Thanks. They don't seem bothered by me taking pigtures and even climb up the bars to rub noses with me. I can already tell they going to be charascters! Just had a mad half hour popcorning round the cage when I gave them veggies.

They're taking veggies from our hands and seem quite relaxed. Bingo is popcorning loads. I forgot how excitable they are when they're small!
