I don't like this style but it's very cohesive. The Kadance spelling bugs me. It looks like it would be confused with "Kandace."Gunner and Gauge made me laugh. I don't like either of the names but it's still the best matched set of twin names I've ever seen.

Gunner and Gauge sound like a pair of cartoon hunting-safety mascots.
Timber is dumb. When you holler for him, people will look around to see what tree is about to fall on them.
mason is just harmlessly blah.
Cadence is silly. It's too wordy to be a name, and it's not even a virtue or something attractive like Melody.
When I hear Cadence I always picture Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in Full Metal Jacket, calling cadence for his new recruits: "I don't know but I've been told..." the rest isn't fit for a PG message board.

I’m definitely going to be in the minority when I say I love the twin names. I’d prefer it to be spelled Gage, though.
I also really like Mason.
I hate Kadance, and Timber is just stupid.

Not well thought out.Mason: a skilled builder, or a member of the Freemasons?
Kadance: Cadence with a fashionable K and the word 'dance' inserted so nobody can doubt it's a musical term?
Timber: what you yell when something large is falling?
Gunner: distressingly aggressive; NRA ancestry?
Gauge: of interest to a Gunner!

I was very hopeful when I saw Mason... but then I saw his younger siblings' names... except Gunner. Gunnar (this spelling) and Mason are good, but the rest are atrocious!
