Woahhhh that's a lot of stories (if it's one per story XD). Olly and Ozzy are a nice pair names! Are they short for Oliver and Oswald?)
I had a fair number of twin sets in my fiction works too...
Irene and Aileen.
Madeline and Carolyn.
Octavian and Eleanor.
Florence and Lawrence.
Ezekiel "Ezra" and Esmerelda "Esme"
Mattias "Matt" and Theodore "Theo"
Jericho and Shiloh (In a similar vein to Troy and Athens, there XD but those two are under debate as twins or just sister and brother.)
Luna and Elio.
Dora and Alora.
I also had a set of quadruplets one time: Terrence, Aquaria, Malachi, and Florimelle (Though they all used nicknames besides Malachi, going by Terran, Aqua, and Flora respectively).
Whether twins or just siblings, I think these combos are nice themed sets:
Onyx(g)/Indigo(b)-colors; Saoirse(g)/Sean(b)-Irish names also beg w same letter; Dakota/Montana (unisex)-Western place names; Arthur/Lance(boys)-literary connection; Geneviere/Anastasia(girls)-long "fancy" names
Onyx and Indigo are very cool together! Nyx and Indy as nicknames too! Saoirse and Sean, Arthur and Lance and Genevieve and Anastasia are lovely too - thanks for reading and commenting!!
I had a set of b/g twins in 2020 and they are named Oberyn (a variation of Oberon that my husband chose) and Ursula (a name that came to me in a dream). They have three connections:
(1) both derive from some form of bear, Oberon from the old German noble bear and Ursula of Latin origin for little bear
(2) both Shakespearean characters, Oberon from A Midsummer Nights Dream and Ursula in Much Ado About Nothing
(3) both are space themed, Oberon being a moon and the Ursula asteroid/Ursa constellations
I wrote a story in which there were twin sisters. Their names changed a lot! Here's the evolution:
Lucinda "Lou" and Seraphina
Lucia "Lou" and Vittoria
Louise "Lou" and Victoria
Louise "Lou" and Charlotte
Olive Louise and Viola Charlotte
Olive Louise and Eden Viola
Olive Louise and Eden Victoria
Piper Louise and Eden Victoria
Piper Olive Louise and Eden Victoria Alice
Piper Olive Lucy and Eden Victoria Alice
I wanted them to feel like they'd been named by the same parents without feeling like a super matched set. I cycled through names while trying to decide on who I wanted the characters and their family to be so the style changed a lot! I eventually settled on Piper and Eden, which I like because they both feel feminine but tailored and not frilly.
Loved seeing your thought process! Piper Olive Lucy and Eden Victoria Alice are wonderful together - Lucia and Vittoria are charming too, but Piper and Eden are perfectly cohesive but hold their own!
Wow, I had no idea that Viola and Sebastian were from Shakespeare originally! I only knew them from the movie She's the Man haha, which apparently was based off of Twelfth Night?? Wow!
So these are names I would name my kids if I had twins:
Boys:
Jason and Ian
Theodor and Jameson
Logan and Lee
Girls:
Iris and Ava
Harlow and Haven
Adelie and Elodie
Loretta and Lourainne
Nyx and Ravyn
Elsie and Sicily
Fallon and Phaedre
Nola and Norie
Both:
Julius and June
August and Zadie
Leia and Carter
Jake and Iris
But also for triplets I have some cute ones. (Kind of jokes, kind of not…)
-Story, Brooke and Paige for girls
-Milan, London and Paris also girls
-Lola, Lee and Logan (2 boys and one girl unless I spelled Lee Leigh or I wanted to name my girl Logan.
But for fictional twins I know that I loved Kamber and Celia from the selection.
I also do a lot of writing and always sneak in a set of twins even if it is accidental. I’ve always wanted twins or a twin so they kind of slip in via my subconscious. Those twins are: Miles and Jake, Theodor and Jameson and Becca and Bailey.
Anyway that’s my addition!! Hope someone finds these name combos cute or amusing!!
Ooh, these are cool! August and Zadie are wonderful! Also liking Nyx and Ravyn, Nola and Norie, and Harlow and Haven! Thank you for reading and commenting!
ooh a real life Toots - that's so fun! Toad is interesting 😁 but Lexi and Lane are sweet! I like Clara and Elena (I knew sisters Clara and Eleanor!) thanks for commenting!!
these are great! Allegra and Lyric are unexpected and sparkly; Malcolm and Declan are rugged and cool; Malcolm and Marina are playful but stylish - thanks for sharing :)
Aurora and Dawn are sweet together! Melody and Harmony are cool too - I feel like there was something with characters Harmony and Melody but as mother and daughter!
*Narnia nerd enters the chat* It's actually Cor and Corin, Shasta was the Calormene name Arsheesh gave him.
I'm author, and the MCs in my first, main book (not finished yet, though), are girls named Swanby and Lilydil. Tell me what yall think about how those match!
Very good point!! I used the one he's known by for a lot of the narrative (though, I haven't read it in years so I might be misremembering) - but maybe they should have been in the matchy section instead!
Swanby and Lilydil are so cool - I like the sort of 'familiar but with a magical twist' of them, as in Lilydil is reminiscent of popular Lily while Swanby could be compared to Ruby, Phoebe or Wren, but they've got their own intriguing feel! nice choices
For my stories, I always include a set of twins (probably because I have twin sisters). I have
Lili and Zellie
Prinz and Emperor
Alice and Iáaki
Storm and Sky
Olly and Ozzy
Nelnel and Rara
Akseli and Maja
Troy and Athens
just to name a few :)
Ooh, these are very cool! Storm and Sky, Akseli and Maja, and Nelnel and Rara are my faves! thanks for sharing and reading :)

Ooh love how well thought out and well connected these two are without sounding matchy! thank you for sharing!
Omg Gravity Falls mentioned! Viola and Sebastian has to be my favorite fictional twinset though
Shakespeare was good at names 😁thank you for reading and commenting!

If I were to have twins tomorrow…
B/B: Rory & Colin
G/G: Sinéad & Vivian
B/G: Cian & Finley
Big brothers are Desmond and Graham. ☺️
Cian and Finley are so lovely together!! Sinead and Vivian are cool too! (and Desmond is great!) thanks for sharing :)
I have named my fictional twins (in my fantasy novel for kids 10-12…not yet published) Sascha & Sabina. Both girls.
ooh, Sascha and Sabina are so sassy and fun! thanks for reading and sharing
Mabel from Gravity Falls was actually the name inspo for my username on here! I love the name because of Mabel Pines 🌈🌲
Wow, I had no idea that Viola and Sebastian were from Shakespeare originally! I only knew them from the movie She's the Man haha, which apparently was based off of Twelfth Night?? Wow!
yes, I believe it is based on that! thanks for reading and commenting!!

I love Iris & Ava together, and August & Zadie!
Oh yeah, I remembered I have another set of twins in my books! (There's actually several, but as they don't exist yet they don't have names lol)
Corian and Coriande (boy/girl)
I always thought the sister names Magnolia and Ambrosia were well matched.
ooh, I like how they fit stylistically, but also in terms of the flower too!
I actually used to babysit B/G twins where the girl went by Toots! The boy went by Toad though. Their real names are Lexi & Lane.
I like Clara and Elena for fictional twins!
(Sorry, this is my last comment, I promise haha. Didn't realize I had so much to say.)
ooh a real life Toots - that's so fun! Toad is interesting 😁 but Lexi and Lane are sweet! I like Clara and Elena (I knew sisters Clara and Eleanor!) thanks for commenting!!
Two girls: Allegra and Lyric
Two boys: Malcolm and Declan
Boy + girl: Malcolm and Marina
these are great! Allegra and Lyric are unexpected and sparkly; Malcolm and Declan are rugged and cool; Malcolm and Marina are playful but stylish - thanks for sharing :)
Harmony and Melody
Aurora and Dawn (they mean the same thing)
Flower and Petal
Aurora and Dawn are sweet together! Melody and Harmony are cool too - I feel like there was something with characters Harmony and Melody but as mother and daughter!

He is referred to as Shasta a lot of the book.
I was thinking how Lilys and Swans are both white, but I see what ur saying!
ah, I didn't click the white link - but that feels so obvious now!
