Twins have to share such a lot especially identical twins, Birthdays looks, first day at school excetra, they are connected enough, why should they be expected to basically share a name, most of the twins I know, my younger sisters included, have all expressed horror at the idea of having similar names.
Of corse a subtle connection like a meaning, say Selene and Diana or David and Amy isnt too bad but Gracie and Lacie, Sally and Cally are sickening, at least to me
Every child is an individual and should be treated as such I would hate it if my parents had chosen my name simply because it sounded similar to my siblings.
I think siblings names should have a similar feel to them, thats to say I wouldnt call one child Elizabeth and another Pocahontas, but I wouldnt go to the other end of the scale and call them Marie and Maria either.
