Very, um, Swiss. Separately they're fine and pretty, but together it makes me think someone wanted to make a musical combining Heidi and The Sound of Music but settled for naming their twin daughters Heidi and Liesl instead :P

Swiss, perhaps, but I automatically think Austrian or German

All three speak German . . .

. . . so there's not much difference really.

I can understand thinking German or Austrian for Liesl, but the most famous literary Heidi is Swiss.
