Too matchy for twins?

Mulling over names for our boy-boy twins due soon. We are as sure as we can be pre-birth that they are non identical if that matters.
So question is, are Rufus and Rowan too matchy for twins? I am aware they have very similar meanings too, I’m not so fussed about that. I’m also not too fussed about having more than one person in the family with the same initial (also my name starts with R too...)

Rylan no they didn’t take blood, they look pretty different and if that wasn’t enough one of them has a number of extra digits!!

There are some retired sprinters from America who are twins who are called Alvin and Calvin. Is that any good? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_Harrison

Oh, didn’t RTFT. I will push Alvin and Calvin on the next twin thread.

Congratulations moggle! What lovely names.

Well I guess that settles it then! Congratulations again - twins are great fun. Hard work for sure, but then so are all babies.

Congratulations and classic names that will last them well.
