I think anagrams (different names using the exact same letters) are a good way of naming twins if you want something similar or matching. That way they get their own individual name, but you've got that cute association.
Sweet:
Aden and Dane/ Dean
Alec and Cale/ Alek and Kale
Brady and Darby
Lukas and Klaus
Corey and Royce
Kaleb and Blake

Traditional/modern combo:
Arnold and Roland
Chaz and Zach
Leon and Noel

Modern/unusual:
Ashen and Shane
Blain and Albin
Darien and Adrien
Dion and Odin
Ewan and Wane
Kory and York

Cute (older style):
Andrew and Darwen
Waldos and Oswald

Hope that helps! :)

using anagrams, near meanings, same first letter, or else?

James and Emily.

The last name is Wilhelms.


Names meaning Twin: Thomas

I would go with names that go well together but aren't too similar. I don't mind the same first letter if they aren't too similar sounding.

Adam & Thomas (Thomas means twin)

Alasdair & Callum
Arthury & Calvin
Angus & Cullen
Harrison & Grant
Sebastian & Elliot
Reid & Cole
Declan & Finn
Jonah & Gabriel
Shane & Quinn
Theodore & Oliver
Henry & Graeme
Gavin & Duncan
Ronan & Lachlan
Matthias & Stellan
Gideon & Josiah
Nolan & Roman
Everett & Oren
Jack & Owen
Ewan & Niall
Miles & Silas
Tobias & Phillip

Well, in my family, all of the Wickland grandchildren's names start with an A. Aaron, Adam, Andrew, Anne, Alec, Alexa, and Aiden. And on my mom's side, Kathleen, Karl, and Ken. My mom likes it because she can label stuff A. Wickland and it doesn't matter whose it is. So here is some A andK names to use!

My twins are Megan and Michael and we call them M& M - my friend has twin boys and named them Nicholas and Jacob. Their formal names do not sound alike but their nicknames - Nick and Jake are cute together. So she got the best of both worlds.Just a suggestion.
