Well, Dawn and Eve are pretty obvious.
Lessee...

---

Gaia and Ocean
Caleb and Felinus
Soleil and Luna
Dag and Layla
Lalage and Tacita
Alda and Berna
Calvin and Esau

In real life? Melanie & Claire? Deirdre & Carola? Magnus & Vaughn?

---

Felicitas & Desdemona
Genevieve & Barbara
Naomi & Mara
Pagan & Christian ... uh, these are twin goldfish. They look the same to me.

Dougal & Gauri (dark stranger/white)
Blythe & Mallory (cheerful/unfortunate)
Luna & Soleil (Moon/Sun)
Estrella & Ondina (star/wave)
Nyx & Dawn (night/dawn)
Altair & Undine (the flyer/wave)
Amarillo & Indigo (yellow/purple)
May & December

Cain and Abel (so tongue-in-cheek, but I do have a brother Kain and love Abel enough to use it on a son)
Aurora (dawn) and Layla (night)
Blanche or Bianca (white, fair) and Melanie (black, dark)
Cecilia (blind) and Aisling (dream/vision -- not quite an opposite, but it works)
Liahona (compass) and Diggory (lost one)

Alba (dawn) & Afton (evening)

There used to be a pair of sisters - not, I think, twins - on local radio where I live. Clearly Catholics, their names were Dolores and Felicitas. So that's what I'd use. Both names have decent nn potential, unlike other antonyms like, say, Dawn and Eve!

---

Nothing really comes to mind for a boy pair, unless maybe Albus and Nigel. And Nigel could be a boy twin with a sister Jennifer, or any of the Welsh Gwen- names.

I got a bit carried away =P I came up with a few others but these are the most likely ones I would use.

---

India and Azalea (wet and dry)
Wilson and Winona (son and daughter)
Zachariah and Manasseh (to remember and to forget)
Jack and Deirdre (man and woman)
Gray and Guinevere (grey and white)
Asher and Molly (happy and sad)
Zoe and Morana (life and death)
Anastasia and Jordan (up and down)
Sarah and Raj (princess and prince)
Hazel and Guinevere (brown and white)
Autumn and Winter (obvious...)

Rufus (red-haired) and Calvina (bald)
Asher (happy) and Dolores (sorrows)
Glenn (valley) and Bryn (hill)
Carl (free man) and Donna (lady)
Felix (lucky) and Mallory (unfortunate)
Ravi (sun) and Luna (moon)
Thanatos (death) and Zoe (life)

---

Nova (new) and Priscilla (ancient)

In terms of names I'd actually use, Ciaran & Alban

Sylvia (forest) & Gideon (feller)
Iris (rainbow) & Cole (black) or Clara (clear)
Arden (high) & Glenn (valley)
Douglas (dark water) & Lambert (bright land) or Phoebe (bright)
Beatrix (traveler) & Constantine (steadfast) - inspired by spacealien

---

peace & war:
Mira & Isolde
Mira & Wystan
Solomon & Griselda
Solomon & Viggo

Love these ideas. First I'm going to pilfer my favorites from other people.

---

Peregrine and Constantine - love that!

---

All right that was the only one I really liked. How about:

---

Eve and Dawn or Eve and Aurora
Easton and Weston LOL
Dexter and Sinister LOL (right handed and left-handed LOL)
Chloe and Ilana (little green shoot / Tree)
Joy and Dolores
Sverre and Jing (wild, swinging vs Still)

Adrasteia (not inclined to run away) and Calypso (she who conceals)... this might be a stretch, but they feel like opposites to me. One open and vulnerable, the other closed and protected.

---

Charisma (grace, kindness) and Severina (stern)

---

Berlind (bear; soft, tender) and Isolde (iron, ice; battle)... another stretch maybe, the one being warm and spring-like and the other being cold and harsh.

---

Artemis (safe; a butcher) and Ophelia (help)... the one is solitary and the other is asking for help

---

Nemesis (distribution of what is due, righteous anger) and Pacifica (peacemaker)

---

Amaia (the end) and Perpetua (continuous)

Oneida ("standing rock") and Tallulah ("leaping waters")
Emilia ("rival") and Hartwin ("brave friend") / Edwin ("rich friend")
Lorcan ("little fierce one") and Caoimhe ("beautiful, gentle, kind")

---

Miran and Viggo - war/peace

Peregrine (traveller) and Constant (steadfast)
Marnie (rejoice) and Dolores (sorrow)
Robin (bright fame) and Melanie (dark)

Vesna (spring) & Autumn
or maybe Blanche (white) & Melantha (dark flower)

Indigo (b) & Marigold (almost opposites on the colour chart, and two of my favourite names) or Indigo (b) & Sienna

---

I also thought maybe:
Ebony & Lucia
Eira (AY-ruh) & Suvi
Ebony & Ziva
Luna & Tesni

Selena and Soleil! Or Adam and Donna! And Bianca and Melanie!
