What are some good twin boy names that have opposite meanings?

My friend and I are trying to find some creative names for twin boys. I don't mind if they are cheesy, just as long as you put in all the names you can think of. Something like Yin and Yang that just works together but at the same time contradict each other.What are some good twin boy names that have opposite meanings?
Aliyah and Jordan (ascend and descend)

Koray and Ravindra (moon and sun)

Engel and Cerberus (angel and demon)

Pegasus/ Nereus and Pyhhrus (water and fire)

Kelvin and Brenton (also water and fire)

Bion/ Zoticus and Athanasius/ Thanatos (life and death)

Batbayar and Ekundayo (joy and sorrow)

Winston and Brennan (same)

Evaristus and Achilles (pleasure and pain)

Boyko and Meginhard (fear and bravery)

Mahli and Azaziah (weak and strong)

Eros and Odysseus (love and hate)

Eadwig and Cynefrid (war and peace)

Xenophon and Tacitus (voice and silent)

Ronen and Yaron (song and shout)

Swapan and Prabohd (sleep and awaken)

Iapetos and Jason (wound and heal)

Malvolio and Valentine (illness and health)
Onyx and Ivory

Chris/Jesus and Luke/Lucas
(Christ/Jesus = God, Luke/Lucas = the Devil)
(Luke/Lucas means "of the light"/"bringer of light", which in Latin is Lucifer, Lucifer = the Devil)

Cain and Abel
(not exactly opposite, but one killed the other according to biblical story)

Bueno and Malo
(Good and Bad)

Notte and Giorno
(Italian for Night and Day)

Sol and Lunes
(Spanish for Sun and Moon)

Lefeu and Leau
(French for Fire and Water)

Heureux and Triste
or
Feliz and Triste
(French and Spanish for Happy and Sad)

Chat and Chien
(French for Cat and Dog)

Tom and Jerry

Bert and Ernie

Ren and Stimpy

Ferarri and Pinto
(Hahaha...I'd hate to see the kid you name Pinto :P)

I can't think of many opposites in English that both sound pleasing as names.

I'd go with a foreign version (such as Yin and Yang in your example or the ones posted above mine). They just have more cachet! :)What are some good twin boy names that have opposite meanings?
I thing the following names will serve your purpose.

Krupa, and Vikupa

Nirmal and Vinirmal

Jayanth and Ajayath

Danam and Nadanam

Pujan and Napujan

Rajan and Virajan or Narajan

Jagan and Vijagan

Like that if you add 'Vi' or 'Na' to the adjuctive names, the meaning will become negetive.What are some good twin boy names that have opposite meanings?
I tried finding more modern names people would actually use, instead of the confusing ones in other answers.



Dylan-Son of the sea, Adam- earth



Andrew-Warrior, Ryan- little king
