[Opinions] Re: Matchy Twin Names and Types of Matchiness.
in reply to a message by kvpp88
Well...
First off, I hate rhyming names. For twins or siblings, it's awful. Totally cheesy and sounds like something from a cartoon.
I don't, however, have anything against names that match in some way if those happen to be two names that are loved.
Some matching is super cheesy though, like Sunny and Luna, or Summer and Skye. So I guess what I'm really saying is that it depends on the names!
Twins I know/ I have known:
Alice and Laura (their English names)
Laura and Rebecca
Kate and Marama (these two are so unmatched it actually seems weird to me)
Matthew and Christopher
So, in my experience, people don't really go for matchy names.
I'm due with twins in December, and we're choosing the two names we like the most. They'll either be Tamsin and Maeve, or Tamsin and Luna, depending on if me or my boyfriend finally wins the debate :p
