Not good.

---

I hate when siblings have closely related names (i.e. Ian & John), even if they sound nothing alike. Joseph and Josephine is even worse. It's essentially the same name. Edward and Eleanor are fine together though.

No.

I dislike using essentially the same name on b/g twins.

They are okay seperatly, but not together.

They are nice combos seperately. But they seem too similar.

Joseph Edward and Josephine Eleanor? That´s crazy!

What is Joseph Edward and Eleanor Josephine?

No way. They basically have the same first name.

I don't like it. I always hated it when people have boy/girl twins and give the girl the feminized version of the boy's name. I just think it's lazy, not to mention confusing. Imagine calling both of them in to dinner.

My not-so-inner twin just died. It's like just short naming your kids Robert and Roberta, and it's worse with twins. I actually know siblings a year apart Alan and Alanna and they constantly get people pointing it out. On their own, Joseph Edward and Josephine Eleanor are fine. Personally I think Josephina would be better.

Nice names, but way to matchy-matchy.

I think Joseph and Josephine are too close but I like the mns. Both names can be shortened to Joe/Jo or Joey (I know some girls with these nns). I think Joseph and Jocelyn or Josiah and Josephine could even work.

It's like that time I saw a sibset of Andrew and Andrea. They have basically the same name, and that's bad. Separately, Joseph and Josephine are good names, but not in a sibset.

They have the same first name. Not good. On non siblings though they're both fine names.

Too similar. What if they both want to go by Joe/Jo? Separately they're great.

Too matchy.

Joseph Edward and Eleanor Josephine would be less trite.

Too similar. I like it better when they have different names. Like Joey and Katie or something like that.
