Re: Twins
Naming one baby is enough to make many people go somewhat crazy. Naming two is more than twice as bad, and conjoined twins ... I read somewhere about conjoined girls who did not survive: can't remember when or even where, but they were named Mary Ellen and Marie Helen. If these two survive, what are the odds they'll become known as Leigh and Lyn? Just for convenience?And if it were me, and I really needed to have matchy names, I'd aim for meanings: Helen and Lucy, or Anne and Grace though I dislike Grace so I wouldn't. But that would be the idea.Peter and Simon would be a bit too obvious for boys.

Paul and Silas, maybe?As to Peter and Simon being too obvious, I write as someone named Jean, with a brother named John. Same name really.
We were 9 years apart in age, though, perhaps that makes a difference.

I'm Charlotte, and my brother born 11 years (and 6 babies) later is Charles. Again, same name. But what can you do?
