I'm watching Ellen re-runs and I got to an episode where they were throwing a baby shower for her friend Paige's sister. She has twin girls and names them what Paige says are "perfect names": Madison and Montana (ewww).

The funny part is that throughout the episode, Ellen keeps calling them the wrong names:
Memphis & Mississippi
Manhattan & Clam Chowder
Miami & Montreal
Madison & Santa Monica

So, what are the worst twin names you've heard/can think of?

I love my Mom and her twin Sisters names, but I think they're horrible together...Arlene and Eileen XP I hate rhyming or themed twin names!

Also: Shanice and Shanell.

My dad is Harry and his twin is Garry. Not the worst, but I'm not a fan of rhyming names. Also, because of this, until I was in my teens I always thought people who spelled the name G-A-R-Y were spelling it wrong. Oops.

My cousin has a friend with twins named Naveh and Haven. Maybe it's just personal preference, but, wow, I think that's idiotic.

My cousin's twins are Londyn and Lauryn [which "match" older bro Jaykob]. If they're said rather than seen, they're not bad, but the Ys just kill me.

Semaj

You win.

I also know a Semaj, but the father is James, not the brother. Mine was pronounced Seh-mah-jay. Yours too?
