[Opinions] Re: Anyone have usable twin names?
in reply to a message by Akis
If I had twins, I would just give them two names I loved, and leave it at that. No offense, but I think some people tend to over-think twin names, giving them rhyming ones, or names with the same meaning. They don't have to match; after all, they are going to be two separate people.

I don't know why people think that twins should have "twin names". It's just weird imo. Use the two names you like the best. That's what I would do. Being a twin myself I know that you will be paired with your twin enough as it is. You don't need almost identical names as well.
ETA: I would name my twins Ellen and August, Ellen and Astrid or August and Isidore. I think that they are great names for siblings and twins and they are also my favorite names. They all have the same style and feeling imo and there's no need to overthink names just because it is twins you're naming.
