You know what to do. "It's not your first time at the county fair."  :-)

I would likely keep only one kitten and give my undivided attention to acclimating him/her successfully. 

Knowing how the last feral kitten was traumatized by he whose name will not be mentioned, I'd keep them separated from that influence. 

Hope it works out. Sorry Mack didn't get back.

A good method I adopted to speed up the process of a cat learning its name is to have some tit-bits to hand and then, when it's not getting eye contact with you, you call its name. When there is no reaction, which is usually the case, give him a tit-bit. Repeat this several times and the cat will soon learn there is something in it for him when he hears its name. Obviously, if you have two cats they have to be taught apart from each other.
