Twins share a birthday and spend most of it being treated as one person. The trick is a card that celebrates them individually. Here are 50+ messages.

Send yours in a free birthday ecard — or better, send two.

For both of them

  1. Happy birthday to both of you! Have a brilliant day.
  2. Happy birthday, you two! Hope it is a good one.
  3. Wishing you both the happiest of birthdays.
  4. Happy birthday to my two favourite people.
  5. Happy birthday! Double the celebrating this year.
  6. Happy birthday, both of you. Enjoy every minute.
  7. Wishing you two a wonderful birthday.
  8. Happy birthday! Hope you both get thoroughly spoiled.
  9. Many happy returns to the pair of you.
  10. Happy birthday to you both — have a great one.
  11. Happy birthday! One day, two celebrations.
  12. Happy birthday, twins! Have a fantastic day.

Celebrating them separately

  1. Happy birthday! You share a birthday, not a personality. This one is for you.
  2. Happy birthday to you specifically. Your sister has her own card.
  3. Happy birthday! Separate card, separate present, separate person.
  4. Happy birthday. You are not half of anything.
  5. Happy birthday! Same day, entirely different people, both brilliant.
  6. Happy birthday to you — and only you, on this occasion.
  7. Happy birthday! I never get you mixed up. That is my gift.
  8. Happy birthday. You have always been your own person and it shows.

  1. Happy birthday! One cake between two is not a saving, it is an outrage.
  2. Happy birthday to the two of you. Try not to compare presents.
  3. Happy birthday! Sharing a birthday for life. Condolences and congratulations.
  4. Happy birthday! I have double-checked which of you is which. Twice.
  5. Happy birthday, both! Please tell your parents I remembered.
  6. Happy birthday! Two of you, one day, twice the noise.
  7. Happy birthday! Still no idea how your mother coped.
  8. Happy birthday! Whoever was born first is still smug about it.

How to write it

  1. Send two cards if you can. Twins spend their whole childhood being addressed jointly, and separate cards genuinely register.
  2. Say something specific to each. Naming what is different about them is the point.
  3. Avoid comparing them. Even favourably — twins are compared enough by everyone else.
  4. Match the gifts in value, not in kind. Identical presents reinforce the very thing they are trying to escape.

FAQ

Should you send twins one card or two?

Two, if you can. Twins are addressed jointly for most of their lives, and a card meant only for them is noticed.

What do you write in a card for twins?

Something specific to each of them. Naming what makes them different is the most welcome thing you can do.

Should the gifts be identical?

Match the value rather than the item. Identical presents reinforce being treated as one person.

What do parents of twins write?

Celebrate them as two individuals who happen to share a date. That is the distinction twins most want made.

What is a good short message?

“Happy birthday to both of you! Have a brilliant day.”

Can it be funny?

Yes — jokes about sharing a cake and about who was born first land well with most twins.
