I don’t like rhyming names for twins, personally!! Too confusing and difficult to distinguish, plus so close as names for two different people.

I agree that rhyming names would be too confusing at best, but I think they come across as gimmicky at worst. I don’t mind twin names that match in terms of associations or starting with the same letter but I think the names should be chosen as though the kids were siblings—blending together well enough but keeping in mind that they won’t be a set forever so it’s important to love the individual names too.

I’m not a fan of rhyming names, but I like these:

[name_m]Elton[/name_m] & [name_u]John[/name_u] - It’s very… well, [name_m]Elton[/name_m] [name_u]John[/name_u], but I like both names. And I’d probably introduce them as [name_u]John[/name_u] & [name_m]Elton[/name_m] instead of the other way around :sweat_smile:
[name_u]Marie[/name_u] & [name_u]Anne[/name_u]

I think [name_u]Marie[/name_u] and [name_u]Anne[/name_u] and [name_u]John[/name_u] and [name_m]Paul[/name_m] are lovely pairs. [name_f]Destiny[/name_f] and [name_f]Trinity[/name_f] and [name_u]Harper[/name_u] and [name_u]Hayden[/name_u] also works. The other names are a bit too similar in my opinion.
