Is Knatalye supposed to be Natalie? I'm honestly surprised her parents didn't name her sister Addahlynn or something.
One of the first documented conjuned twins was Aang and Ong, who were south east Asian!
Names like Maria Paz and Maria Jose aren't too weird to me - I once dated a Portuguese bloke who had two older step-sisters and an older and younger sister, three of whom had 'Maria' in their name, none of whom went by 'Maria' at all. Their mother was called Maria. He told me that some stupid percentage of Portuguese women (in general, or from his area, I can't remember) have Maria in their name and most of them drop it and use their other name. Whether that's true or just a regional quirk, I don't know.
Stuff like Angelina / Angelica, Ayara / Jayara and all that is too much, in my opinion, though... I prefer the ones with very different names. Like Ximena and Scarlett, or Patrick and Benjamin, I dislike both names, but I like how individual they feel.
I like Daisy and Violet, and, on their own, Eva, Carmen, Kendra, Marek and Aliza.
Banya Flood and Barsha Rain, I looked up, and I think it's that Banya means 'flood' and Barsha means 'rain' in Bengali (??), so really it's just Banya and Barsha. Which is kinda cute in that they're both B names with a theme which are just different enough. Apart from 'flood' isn't a great meaning and Barsha doesn't sound that great.
And 'banya' means 'a bath (as in, a thing you wash in)'/'bathhouse' in Russian, which I find quite distracting.
