What are your thoughts on having two DS's with the same initial?

is it too confusing... or is it really handy because you save on name tags?!!

Think it's fine.

I wouldn't because it makes opening post difficult.

It can get confusing when they are older, and post comes to the house saying "Mr. A McCleary" and you don't know which ds it's for (talking teenagers and older here). Otherwise, not a problem!

I have the same initial as dd1; dh has the same initial as dd2. We didn't plan it that way, but it's so hard choosing a name that fits our strict criteria that we didn't have that much choice in the end.

I have 2 DC beginning with the same letter 'C' and 2 DC beginning with the letter 'K'. I dont find it confusing at all.
