Do you have a double?

Doubles, doppelganger​s, doppelgaumlautngers, unknown twins, twin strangers, look-alike humans and ultra-look-alike humans are people who look almost identical as defined by facial recognition algorithms. They also have similarities in their DNA which happen just by chance, but doubles are unrelated.

Monozygotic twins share almost identical facial traits and the same DNA sequence as each other, but different from their parents.

Clones are genetic copies with DNA identical to one parent.

Clonaid.com can help you if you want an 'identical twin'

If you’ve just lost, or are about to lose, a beloved family member, and would like to see an 'identical twin' of that person begin a new life, then maybe Clonaid.com can help you.
Identical twins are 'monozygotic', that is, they develop from a single, fertilized egg that later split. Of course, a clone of your loved one shouldn't strictly be called a twin, because twins are the result of one pregnancy, whereas a clone would involve a second pregnancy. Source
