Before we had kids, my wife and I agreed to name our first son Robert, after both of our dads. It turned out that her first pregnancy was twin boys, so we had to come up with a second name, which was Andrew. However, despite knowing which would be born first based on womb logistics, we decided to wait until we'd "met" them for a bit. Our dads are both pretty mild mannered, so that was the main personality trait we were looking for. About two days after they were born, it was pretty clear that Baby A was the drama king, and Baby B was the calm one. So, they became Andrew and Robert, respectively.
We were way off. Bobby is the rabble-rouser, the button pusher, the quicker to complain. Andrew's pretty chill, especially compared to his brother. So, when they were about six months old, I wrote this in my blog about them:

As a thought experiment, we wondered what it would take to switch them on purpose - the one we call Andrew would become Robert and vice versa. The truth is, it wouldn't take much.
We have no actual plans to do it, though.
As far as you people know.
So to answer the OP's question ... almost, for two children.
Or maybe we did.
