Generally fraternal twins are more common. For fraternal twins to occur twins must diverge, but differentiate upon becoming separate entities.

Identical twins are rarer, in which the two siblings are of the same gender and are exactly alike upon birth.

Rarer so are conjoined, or "Siamese" twins. This occurs when twins are born partially or extremely fused together. There is only a 25% survival chance for a conjoined twin. Most were only connected by gristle and flesh, and could have been easily separated easily, were they in modern society.
