[Opinions] A twin-name theory/observation

I've been meeting alot of sibsets with names that begin with vowels. Example: Abby and Olivia. I was thinking about it, and vowel twin sets sound really good, as opposed to same-letter, rhyming, or not matching at all. What about these:
DS/DS: Isaac / Aidan
DD/DD: Eva / Isabel

Does anyone aggree with me?

I've seen worse twin themes. At least this connection is subtle and not imposing. They are still distinct names. Really, to realize that this was done on purpose wouldn't be easy to figure out. This could have been coincedence. This is what I mean when I talk about bad twin themes vs sort-of-acceptable twin themes.

I've never thought about it, but I tend to agree. They almost sound similar, but they are still different enough to NOT sound twinny or cutesy. Good idea. :)

Yes I agree, it sounds good. Just thinking now, my parents did that with me (Ashlee g) and my twin (Elliot). I have twin cousins but they just have usual names (Samuel & Joshua, *Sam & Josh*).
