Twins I saw today:

Devine & Devone

Now how would YOU pronounce the first name? Because what you think it is more than likely isn't right!

It's pronounced like Devin. O_o

Why why why do parents do this to their children??

I hate when people get so matchy like that when they have twins. I doubt they would even give those names to their kids if they weren't twins.

Way too matchy.

My sister-in-law (who used to work in a NICU) once cared for newborn twins Kevin and Kevan. Bleah.

I know of these three brothers that are named: Benson, Benny, and Benjamin. And they're not even triplets!

I read them Dev-EEN and Dev-ONN

I love the name Devine! it can be rooted to the french verb "deviner", which means "to foresee" :)

I hate Devone and the sick matchiness, that's for sure!

My mom's a nurse and she used to work in L & D. She had a woman once name her twins Tameka Dawn and Taneka Dawn.

Yeah.

I would have said Devine, though I've met a Devine who pronounced it Dee-vine before.

It's not cute, at the very least.
