In a on a Reddit group for name-shaming, one person revealed the unique matching names a mother gave to her twins.

While one baby was given the name Elayna Daniele, her sister was called something very similar.

The new mother decided to call her second newborn Elayne Daniela.

While matching clothes and toys are often common for young twins, Reddit users were not expecting the corresponding set of names.

One reader pointed out that the twins will have "literally the same name."

"My twin and I have trouble with the credit card companies thinking we’re one person committing fraud. These poor girls are going to have a rough time," wrote one viewer.

Another reader said: "I don't mind similar looking/sounding names for siblings but THIS is just too much!!"

"This is so triggering to me. I grew up as half of a sibling pair named like this. Think Laurie Jean and Laura Jane. It was horrible," commented a third person.

One Reddit user joked: "'I'm trying to decide between Elayna Daniele and Elayne Daniela.' Find out having twins. 'Fantastic now I can use both!'"

"We just need to pray they’re not identical, I feel bad for their poor teachers," wrote another reader.

Another person shared: "I have an uncle named Floyd with a twin named Lloyd. It’s just mean to the kids to do something like this."

"I knew a pair of identical twin girls named Rose and Rosie," wrote one Reddit user.
