Tweedledum and Tweedledee was an established nursery rhyme before its heroes appeared in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass. When she meets them, Alice recalls the rhyme:
`Tweedledum and Tweedledee
Agreed to have a battle;
For Tweedledum said Tweedledee
Had spoiled his nice new rattle.
Just then flew down a monstrous crow,
As black as a tar-barrel;
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.
It is included in the Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes and it is probable that it has a been featured in Mother Goose or other books of rhymes for children.

Is Alice from Alice in Wonderland royalty?
No. Alice is not royalty. At least, there is no mention in either of the books to suggest that she is, so it is reasonable to assume that she isn't. In Chapter 9 of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Alice decides that "When I'm a Duchess...I won't have any pepper in my kitchen at all." (But she doesn't say it in a very hopeful tone) From this it can be inferred that her current rank is certainly below that of Duchess and that she is probably a commoner.

What names would you hear in Alice in Wonderland?
There are remarkably few names in the Alice books, as most of the characters are simply known by their descriptions, for example the White Rabbit, the Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts... The ordinary names which are mentioned in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland are those of characters she doesn't meet in the course of the book: Ada and Mabel are two children she knows Dinah is the name of Alice's pet cat Mary Ann is a name which was usually associated with servant girls at the time that the books were written, and the White Rabbit addresses Alice as this, as he has mistaken her for his house maid Pat and Bill are other servants in the White Rabbit's house (although Alice doesn't meet these characters she does hear them) William is mentioned in the context of the poem 'You Are Old Father William' Elsie, Lacie and Tillie are characters in the story told by the Dormouse In Through the Looking-Glass several of the central characters do have names, but the majority of these are nonsense names: Lily is the name that the White Queen has given to her daughter Tweedledum and Tweedledee are the twins who Alice encounters Humpty Dumpty is of course based on the nursery rhyme Hatta and Haigha, pronounced hatter and hare, are the characters from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but given names which sound like their previous descriptions The flowers Alice meets seem to have names, but these are also just descriptions: the Tiger-lily, the Rose, a Violet etc And we mustn't forget the most important name of all...Alice
