[Opinions] Re: What do you think about twins with names that begin with the same letter?
I don't love it as a general rule, but it's certainly not terrible. Especially the names you've picked. They are different enough that it doesn't feel ridiculous.I'm trying to think of twins I have known.
Leanne & Michelle
Karina & Krista
Richard & Rodger
David & Daniel
Joshua & Jenna (however, their older sister is also a J name)
Loreena & Larisa (these were too close because they pronounce Larisa lah-REES-uh)
Shannon & Dana
Ruth & Esther (matchy, but not alliterative)
Hmm, I never noticed how many of them were alliterative. So, clearly then, it's not a big deal if I never noticed it till now.

Thanks,
I especially hate sibsets with all J names... yikes. My best friend growing up was one of four, and they all had J names, so I can't handle it anymore lol.
I like Leanne and Michelle! I also like Shannon and Dana.

Like others, I don't mind it if the names are not too similar otherwise. Twins I've known:
Matthew & Kevin
David & Dana (m)
David & Jesse
Ryan & Sean
Michael & Samuel
Lena & Lucy
Brandy & Brittany
Madeline & Emmeline
Penelope & Margaret (Penny & Peggy)I can't think of any m/f twins I've known.

My best friends are a m/f twin set. They are Blake (m) and Mackenzie (f). I've always wanted m/f twins. I think that's the best kind, because they don't compete as much, but they are still really close.
