[Opinions] Re: What would you name a set of twins?
I have strong feelings about this.I would pick things only if they coordinated. Couldn't handle siblings named Clover and Nikolai. Yuck.My family took in twins named Lily and Laila and I HATE cutesy twin names so I would NEVER do that. Ugh.
Besides that, I used to work with a lady who had children named Tatiana, Briana, and Vriana. She made up something stupid because she thought it went with her other kids' names. Disgusting.I wouldn't name my children names that were too obvious in theme. And I would NEVER name siblings the names of famous lovers. How absolutely creepy. No one would name their twins Romeo and Juliet because Romeo and Juliet are lovers, not siblings and nothing said, "gross"and "judge my children" like adding in a huge dose of incest.
If I used a theme, something subtle would be best. Mostly, I think I would just choose names that went fine together.

Tatiana, Briana, and Vriana are awful together. There not just matching but rhyming. If she felt compelled to have the last child's name end with 'iana' why not use Mariana or Georgiana. Vriana sounds like a brand of medication. What do you think of Amy and Alice as siblings? It would be creepy to encounter sibling named after famous lovers like Romeo and Juliet or Tristan and Isolde, so perhaps Apollo and Diana would have been a better example of theme names although that would be ostentatious as well as matching. Sebastian Evgeniy and Alexander Silvio Caius are very handsome sounding.

I have always shuttered at the thought of Vriana having to go through life with that. But Vriana graduated high school with all honors so at least she wasn't letting the name get her down. Poor child.I don't personally care for Amy, but I suppose Amy and Alice are fine as siblings. I wouldn't do it for twins though. Too similar. Everyone would mix them up even more than usual.
