Taylor Delaney seems very masculine to me while Olivia Danielle is just the opposite, very feminine. I think you might want to balance them out a bit so one doesn't end up feeling more like you wished you had a boy instead.
Maybe Taylor Danielle & Olivia Delaney?

Both names are fine -- despite my own personal aversion to Taylor ;) -- but it's generally a nice idea to try and stick with similar styles when considering names for siblings, much less twins.
I'm not talking about the stereotypically "matchy" sort by any means (thank goodness you're intelligent enough to avoid that whole debacle!). ;) More along the lines of choosing two first names that compliment, rather than compete. Two feminine classics (popular or underused), two unisex/masculine names, two with Irish, Russian or Italian origins. You get the idea. :)
After all, twins are compared enough without one having a frilly feminine name (a la Olivia) and therefore either expected to be equally "girly" or noted for having a personality quite the opposte, or conversely, the other having a masculine name and assumed a tomboy, only to go the other direction or even feel forced to comform to that stereotype.
Speaking from experience here. I knew twins in their 20s -- one given what she deemed an "old lady" name and the other a trendy, modern crossover, and they were constantly competing. Trendy considered herself "cooler" and yet was the more feminine of the two. Old-fashioned felt her name didn't fit her athletic, tomboyish personality. Things of that nature. At least if the two were given monikers of similar styles they'd have been rebelling against the NAMES, rather than with each other because of it. ;)
Hopefully that makes sense. ;) In other words, if you absolutely love Taylor, an equally common crossover seems a better fit for Twin B. Ashley, Madison, Jordan, Avery and the like. If Olivia is more your passion, another classic, feminine name would work best. Sophia, Isabella, Abigail, Madeline, Victoria, etc.
Or possibly even something that seems to span both styles. Zoe, for example, is a classic feminine option with a modern sort of sound, so it seems just as fitting with Taylor OR Olivia, if you follow.
Not saying every name listed is my personal style, mind you, but it definitely helps to keep things on an even keel, so to speak. Especially for twins, who are compared so much to begin with. Names can be an added source of contention, after all, so definitely worth some serious thought. :) Good luck!
Edit: Somehow I missed the middle names. Given Danielle and Delaney, a simple solution would be to switch the combos to Taylor Danielle and Delaney Olivia (or vice versa, with Olivia and Danielle or Daniela as the first names). Thereby giving both girls a modernly-unisex first name and obviously-feminine middle. ;) Just another thought!

they don't seem to go together. Taylor is unisex while Olivia is very girly.
maybe try Alyssa Delaney, Lauren Delaney, or Alexis Delaney. I think those sound good with Olivia Danielle.

I like Taylor and Olivia, and Olivia goes nicely with Danielle but I don't like Delaney.

I really like the names as separates but to me Taylor seems more masculine and Delaney seems very feminine. Tayler is fine for a girl but I am not sure it goes good as a pair with Delaney. But all in all I think all the names are very pretty!
Good Luck!

I like them alot. Especially Taylor. Olivia sounds a little old lady-ish... but that's just my opinion.
