[Opinions] Laura and Daphne both mean Laurel, what do you think of those names for twin girls?

Love the idea. They'd make great twin names.:)

I dislike themey twin names. Twins are individuals and should be treated as such. If you wouldn't name two singleton sisters Daphne and Laurel then you shouldn't name twin sisters Daphne and Laurel.

As a twin myself and a victim of too matchy names, I think that it just shouldn't be done. Both are lovely names, but theme-y twin names is annoying to me, speaking from experience!(I'm Jen, she's Jess - that way, when my mom needed one of us, she could say a mumbled "jens" and that way, if she had the wrong name, she could say she was right haha)

That's cool, I like that they mean the same but are different.

Perfect twin namesThey have the meaning in common but are not too similar. Though I prefer Laurel to Laura. Laurel and Daphne."You sought a flower and found a fruit. You sought a spring and found a sea. You sought a woman and found a soul. You are disappointed."
