a twinset I came up with
I like the idea of twinsets with a "hidden theme", such as names with similar meanings. One I had thought of is Deborah and Melissa (both meaning "bee" respectively in Hebrew and Greek). Recently I came up with Eowyn and Philippa. I don't even like "The Lord of the Rings" (though I love horses!) and I doubt I would use these names if I were ever to have twins, though I think this twinset could work quite well on characters. WDYT?

While blatantly match-y sibling/twin sets bother me, I actually quite like hidden themes.I've seen Deborahs and Melissas together before, so it's kind of "meh" to me. Eowyn and Philippa, on the other hand, is really quite lovely. (Of course, I'm bound to love any sibling set with Philippa in it, so...)

Eowyn and Philippa go well together without being too twinsy. I'm not too keen on Philippa, but I like Eowyn.
