I wouldn't use the word "normal" when describing names. People these days make up names for their babys that doesn't exist in any baby name book or website. Just because they may be only 3 of such names in the world doesn't make them not normal, but unique and different. The names you have are common enough to have been heard before by people but not as common as Joe, Tom, John, Bill or Bob. I have only known personally of one Dean and one Spencer in my whole life and I'm in my 50s.
What matters more is why you are choosing the names. When naming my daughters, we decided we wanted Bible names. Since the second letter of my and husband and first childs name was the same, I decided by the naming of 2nd and 3rd to choose names that also had matching 2nd letter. Some name after relatives, or just seek uncommon names. My Mom did that successfully with 3 or her 4. None were common at the time and only one is today. I only once briefly met a gal with my name, one with a sisters, and never met anyone with my brothers name. Its nice to have a unique name. Only thing important to me was that the two names rolled off the tongue easy, sounded like they went together, sounding melodic. But whatever names you like, choose them for your own reasons, even if it has something to do with the meaning behind the name.

When it comes to children the most important factor to remember is first and foremost they are your children. Yours and their fathers, you are the ones who get to name them and raise them. If you ask others for suggestions on names or if they like the names you have chosen you will go nuts for you will never satisfy everyone.

The names you have chosen to my mind are great names. The one middle name is unique and as the child gets older he may want to know why you chose it. Fact is though few if any people ever call anyone by their middle name. You will use it when you want to get his attention, all parents do . It tells them they are most likely in trouble and they better snap too.

Congratulations on the coming birth of your twins. You have chosen some great names. Relax and enjoy your children.

Aww dean and spencer are such cute names. The middle names are very unique which is interesting :) (not in a bad way) i would say stick with the names, although the middle names are a little out of the ordinary and depending on their personalities they may be emberassed of the middle name but everyone is, i got lucky and dont even have a middle name but its very cute so stick with them both!
