In Batman comics
In DC Comics, two long-time Batman villains call themselves after the characters, because they are cousins that happen to be identical and very similar to the original versions. Their true names, appropriately, are Deever and Dumfree Tweed. They occasionally appear as henchmen of the Joker, but just as often operate solo. They first appeared in Detective Comics #74. Interestingly, aside from one animated appearance on The Batman/Superman Hour and a joint appearance in Detective Comics #841 (April 2008), they have no affiliation with the Mad Hatter, another Wonderland-based villain.
They also appeared as Joker's henchmen in Batman: The Animated Series in the episode "Joker's Favor" and had a cameo in the graphic novel Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth.
