These cuddly little bundles of cute you see right here are a pair of red panda twins — one boy and one girl — born this summer at Lincoln Children’s Zoo in Nebraska. They don’t have names yet, and the zoo is accepting submissions now through Sept. 29 on its [Facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/lincolnchildrenszoo).

The names will be announced on Oct. 14 and the winner will get to enjoy a special “meet and greet” with the cubs. If you’re interested in submitting, be sure to check out photos of the twins on the zoo’s[ Instagram](http://instagram.com/lincolnchildrenszoo) to get some inspiration:


It sort of feels like no names are good enough for these guys, but we’re definitely excited to see what they end up with.
