Help[Opinions] names from an obituary
The other day there was an obit for a local man here in Delaware who'd died at 51 from choking on a bite of lobster while home alone. Anyway, his obit talked about what an avid outdoorsman he was, he was in Ducks Unlimited, NRA, all kinds of hunting, fishing, preservation clubs.
He was survived by two sons: Gunner and Colt.
I suppose they're lucky he didn't name them Duck and Goose.
I think, therefore I judge.

I know a two brothers named Gunnar and Colt, both under ten. I'm more surprised that there are other identical sibsets than the names themselves.

I seen that sibset in my local BAs before as well! Not for twins though. I've learned not to be too surprised, because it's a "theme" and some people like those.
I think the only themed combo that ever surprised me (and, again, I don't know why, I should know better haha) was seeing a local BA for an Arwen, joining big sister Eowyn. I know I've mentioned here before how unusually popular Eowyn is in my town, but I've grown so used to it I barely think of it as a LOTR name now, so I was surprised to see another lol I'm just waiting for the day I see a sibset of Eowyn and Eomer! It'll happen one day, I'm sure!

Yeah, it's almost a micro-cliche.
I even know of a pair of identical twins in their twenties called Hunter and Trapper, which I've seen a few other places on here as well.
The really funny part is that Trapper is actually Trapper John. Like the TV show.
