When there are BAs with twinsets like Hannah and Anna or Peyton and Payton I always wonder if the parents realized they're two separate beings or do they think they're photocopies? I find it odd that people would do this at a time when, esp. with identicals, you're adivced to try to make twins as individual as possible, not dressing them alike, placing them in different classes.

This said, I must confess I like the idea of "secret themes" for twins, such as names that look and sound totally different but have similar meanings (eg. I like Malka and Regina as a twinset). So it's not obviously matchy and no one would really notice it unless they 're into name etymology, and the kids themselves wouldn't really notice until they start wondering about the meanings of their names.
