The Toronto Zoo has launched an online naming contest for its twin giant panda cubs.
The public has until Feb. 28 to choose from a set of seven pre-selected names.
The zoo said it took a “very consultative process” to narrow down the potential names with help from a translator and Chinese zoo officials.
The choices are:
- Jia Bao & Duo Bao
- DuoDuo & Jia Jia
- Jia Pengyou & Duo Pengyou
- Jia Panpan & Jia Yueyue
- Jia Renjian & Jia Ren’ai
- Jia Baobao & Jia Beibei
- Jia Huabao and Jia Huabei

The chosen names will be announced on March 7 with the pandas’ official public introduction to take place mid-March.
It was announced last week that the two cubs are a boy and a girl.
Both were born on Oct. 13 and recently celebrated their 100 day milestone on Jan. 20.
