Re: Twins: WDYT?

The first names do sound very different. It is hard to imagine the same person liking both Melissa and Phoebe. Melissa is so pretty-pretty and so yesterday, while Phoebe is so today and so not pretty-pretty.
Dorothy and Edna, though, seem to go hand-in-hand to me. I could see the same person choosing both of those middle names.
I dislike both Melissa and Phoebe for very different reasons. Melissa, as I said, is pretty-pretty, TOO pretty-pretty, like it's screaming, "Look at me! I'm so PRETTY! I'm so frilly and lacy and pink and pretty, I'm such an obvious choice for a pretty little girl, I'm so so PRETTY!" and that's why I don't like it. Phoebe, on the other hand, just sounds so silly and ugly to me. FEEE-BEEE. I just don't get it. The two are such extremes.
