Names for twin boys (too similar?)

WDYTO Jude and Jens (prn. YENS) as twins?
I love both names so much and I think they SOUND different enough to work but fear that they might LOOK to similar (4 letters beginning with J...)

Would love some input!
p.s. I'm not expecting. Just curious: )

They LOOK way too similar IMO, but they sound completely different. I wouldn't use them together, mainly because I can see Jens being prn. wrong. Although, I'm starting to love the name Jude!

I agree.

They would be okay if you never had to write them down next to each other. And I think that Jens would be really likely to be mispronounced, especially paired with Jude, which would make people more likely to assume Jens is pronounced with a J sound.
