My toddlers for the toddler scenario are identical triplets. I named them Sage, Ruby, and Violet and plan to dress them in corresponding colors in order to tell them apart.
I have very strong opinions on the naming of twins or triplets. I don't agree with the sing-songy types many choose to go with. (I know, I know I'm contradicting myself from my earlier post.) Especially if we're talking about Identicals. This is a rare form of twins. Identity can be problematic, so giving them a name that doesn't rhyme with the other's name is nearly imperative. In RL there has been many twins in my lineage. To my knowledge all have been fraternal, even the only same-gender twins, both females. The other three younger sets of twins were male and female. Some had sing-songy names which drove me nuts. George and Georgianna, for instance. I think most simply called her Anna. I never met her. There was a set of twin boys born back in the 18th century but no one has ever said if they were identical or not. Sadly they lost their lives at the tender age of 16. Robert and William.
I like your choice of names. I have identical twin girls in my current game save: Melody and Harmony. I have them color-coded as well. I think I was inspired by the reality show "Out-daughtered". The couple has the only all female quintuplets in America. Only two of them are identical, but they all look so very much alike, as siblings so often do. Their mom gave each girl her own color when it came to what section of the room their toys resided in. In their clothing, they were all dressed alike. I'm thinking, why? Perhaps, the parents wished to truly learn each girls' face? Good for them. I use the colors to help me discern just which twin is doing what in my game. It's a full household and their icons are so itty-bitty.
