Re: What do you think about twins with names that begin with the same letter?
I agree on all of this. Funnily enough though, the only pair of twins I've met who's names were completely different and not at all matchy, are my aunts - they're Katelyn and Kara. And I've met a lot of twins. Come to think of it, I'd always kind of thought it was common for twins to have matchy names, not even thinking of the twins I've met irl. I wonder how common it really is.Anyway, twins run in my family and if I end up with twins, I'll likely give them kind of matching names too :)

My sister and I don't have matchy names (Caroline and Terése) and my best friend Per has a twin sister named Christina. I went to school with two twin sets: Jesper and Joel and Oscar and Gustav. None are matchy in my opinion. Actually, I don't think I've ever met a supermatchy twin set.
