You got it wrong too :P Their names are Lotte and Luise. I read the book in German as a child, my dad is German and I speak the language. I just googled it and in the English version they changed their names to Lisa and Lottie. It is based on a book by Erich Kastner. Their mom's name was Luiselotte in the German version and they separated the names just as they separated the girls. The Hayley Mills movie is based on the book. It was one of my favorites when I was little.

I like Hallie and Annie better, to be honest. They sound more alike than Hayley and Hannah and none of the names are in the spirit of the book anyway, unless their mom was named Sharonsusan or Hayleyhannah.
