I just found this: http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/twins.html
List of the most popular twin names in 2007.

I was surprised just how many of them were matchy. I mean I know people use matchy twin names but I didn't think it happened to this extent.

But maybe it's just because if they're not matchy, they're less likely to occur often enough to make a list like this.

It's kind of awful to see, all in one place. Ella and Emma, Taylor and Tyler, Christian and Christopher?! Faith and Hope is just cheesy.

That's why I'm not using same letters for any of my children. And I have 26tuplets, I'll just have my ovaries removed after.

There's Hailey/Hannah and Haley/Hannah on the list. I'm surprised at how many sets of twins have the same names.

Some of those are really good together. But I never would have thought Jessica/Jennifer would have been on there. I'm a Jessica, and I love my name, but that combo should have gone out of style in the 80's. People call me Jennifer by mistake all the fucking time...I couldn't imagine how annoyed I'd be if I had a twin with that name XP

My Mom's a twin...Arlene and Eileen! I don't like that they rhyme, but they're both such cute old timey names :) My Mom would kill me if she heard me say that lol

My boss is named Terry.. he has a twin named Sherry. :-/

Well, I think it's his twin. I know he has a twin, but I don't know her name for sure. And I know he has a sister named Sherry, but I don't know if she's one and the same as his twin, or not. But I'm betting they are, because their mom thought it was 'cute'.
