Quintuplets??

General Name Discussion

Ha! I’d be lucky I could find five names at once I could imagine using and loving as much as my top choice for each gender. Definitely wouldn’t do matchy if I could help it.

Five girls: [name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Aurora[/name] [name]Grace[/name], [name]Arianne[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name] [name]Kate[/name], [name]Olivia[/name] [name]Wren[/name] [name]Camille[/name], [name]Violet[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Ruby[/name], and [name]Rachel[/name] [name]Clara[/name] [name]Evangeline[/name] “[name]Bella[/name], [name]Ari[/name], [name]Liv[/name], [name]Violet[/name], and [name]Rachel[/name]”

Four girls and one boy: [name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Aurora[/name] [name]Grace[/name], [name]Arianne[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name] [name]Kate[/name], [name]Olivia[/name] [name]Wren[/name] [name]Camille[/name], [name]Violet[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name] [name]Claire[/name], and [name]Caleb[/name] [name]Elias[/name] [name]Joseph[/name]
“[name]Bella[/name], [name]Ari[/name], [name]Liv[/name], [name]Violet[/name], and [name]Caleb[/name]”

Three girls and two boys: [name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Aurora[/name] [name]Grace[/name], [name]Arianne[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name] [name]Kate[/name], [name]Olivia[/name] [name]Wren[/name] [name]Camille[/name], [name]Caleb[/name] [name]Elias[/name] [name]Joseph[/name], and [name]Jack[/name] [name]August[/name] [name]Cole[/name] “[name]Bella[/name], [name]Ari[/name], [name]Liv[/name], [name]Caleb[/name], and [name]Jack[/name]”

Two girls and three boys: [name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Aurora[/name] [name]Grace[/name], [name]Arianne[/name] [name]Eleanor[/name] [name]Kate[/name], [name]Caleb[/name] [name]Elias[/name] [name]Joseph[/name], [name]Jack[/name] [name]August[/name] [name]Cole[/name], and [name]Asher[/name] [name]Daniel[/name] [name]Zane[/name] “[name]Bella[/name], [name]Ari[/name], [name]Caleb[/name], [name]Jack[/name], and [name]Ash[/name]”

[name]One[/name] girl and four boys: [name]Isabelle[/name] [name]Aurora[/name] [name]Grace[/name], [name]Caleb[/name] [name]Elias[/name] [name]Joseph[/name], [name]Jack[/name] [name]August[/name] [name]Cole[/name], [name]Asher[/name] [name]Daniel[/name] [name]Zane[/name], and [name]Everett[/name] [name]Joshua[/name] [name]Charles[/name] “[name]Bella[/name], [name]Caleb[/name], [name]Jack[/name], [name]Ash[/name], and [name]Everett[/name]”

Five boys: [name]Caleb[/name] [name]Elias[/name] [name]Joseph[/name], [name]Jack[/name] [name]August[/name] [name]Cole[/name], [name]Asher[/name] [name]Daniel[/name] [name]Zane[/name], [name]Everett[/name] [name]Daniel[/name] [name]Charles[/name], and [name]Bailey[/name] [name]Edward[/name] [name]Christian[/name] “[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Jack[/name], [name]Ash[/name], [name]Everett[/name], and [name]Bailey[/name]”

If I did anything themey, hopefully it would be a subtle thing. As previous posters have mentioned, it would be enough of a struggle to be referred to as anything other than ‘the quints’, without them having names that are too similar. I would try to pick names (with the help of my significant other, of course) that would work just the same if they weren’t quints.

23

[name]Flora[/name], [name]Daisy[/name], [name]Ivy[/name], [name]Violet[/name], and [name]George[/name]. Thought there was a theme eh? Nope. Fooled you.

24

Nothing noticeably-matchy or themed. I think pairs of matchy names sound OK, I suppose, but I would never choose matchy names for a whole set of siblings, particularly multiples!

For instance:

[name]Meg[/name], [name]Gillian[/name] and [name]Mabel[/name] (repeated letter in sibset) vs. [name]Meg[/name], [name]Molly[/name], [name]Mabel[/name], [name]Maeve[/name] and [name]Maude[/name].

or

[name]Kitty[/name] and [name]Daisy[/name] (cutesy and similar word names) vs. [name]Kitty[/name], [name]Lily[/name], [name]Daisy[/name], [name]Ruby[/name] and [name]Elfie[/name].

or

[name]Faith[/name] and [name]Constance[/name] (virtue names) vs. [name]Grace[/name], [name]Faith[/name], [name]Prudence[/name], [name]Felicity[/name] and [name]Constance[/name].

You get my point. I would probably just go with names that I loved, but be careful not to have any stand out names that where wildly different from the rest. I’d probably try to have a theme for the middle name(s), but it would most likely just be names of ancient relatives, or possibly names with similar meanings. [name]Just[/name] for the sake of it, and if I could choose genders, I’d go for:

[name]Ottilie[/name] [name]Amelia[/name] [name]Gwen[/name]
[name]Sybella[/name] [name]Eira[/name] [name]Mary[/name]
[name]Eliza[/name] [name]Rose[/name] [name]Margaret[/name]
[name]Ned[/name] [name]Alec[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name]
[name]Jack[/name] [name]Henry[/name] [name]Eliott[/name]

All the girls have 3 syllables and boys have 1 by coincidence. Middle names are [mostly] honouring.

25

[name]Kathryn[/name] [name]Noelle[/name], [name]Jacqueline[/name] [name]Eden[/name], [name]Juliet[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]Claire[/name] [name]Marie[/name], [name]Lauryn[/name] [name]Rose[/name]

26

I would probably just pick five names I like, lol. [name]Just[/name] off the top of my head:

Five Boys:
[name]Jasper[/name] [name]Beau[/name] [name]Wilder[/name]
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Gideon[/name] [name]Wolf[/name]
[name]Phineas[/name] [name]Jericho[/name] [name]Blaine[/name] (nn [name]Finn[/name])
[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]William[/name] [name]Cale[/name]
[name]Linus[/name] [name]Weston[/name] [name]Nash[/name]

Five Girls
[name]Evangeline[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] (nn [name]Evie[/name])
[name]Talullah[/name] [name]Scarlett[/name] (nn [name]Lulu[/name])
[name]Phoebe[/name] [name]Marguerite[/name]
[name]Guinevere[/name] [name]Snow[/name] (nn [name]Vera[/name])
[name]Eliza[/name] [name]Grace[/name] [name]Noelle[/name]

Combo
[name]Jasper[/name] [name]Beau[/name] [name]Wilder[/name]
[name]Evangeline[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]
and three more

With that many kids I’d work backwards and start with nicknames first. I’d want a short 1 syllable nn with no repeating first letter or main vowel sound so that it’s easier to holler for them all. I’d have an a-e-i-o-u girl/boy choices and just name 'em as they come out.

Ex girls: [name]Faline[/name], [name]Beatris[/name], [name]Violet[/name], [name]Shoshana[/name], [name]Prudence[/name] ([name]Fay[/name], [name]Bea[/name], [name]Vi[/name], Sho, [name]Prue[/name])
Ex boys: [name]Wallace[/name], [name]Theodore[/name], [name]Miles[/name], [name]Joseph[/name], [name]August[/name] ([name]Ace[/name], [name]Ted[/name], [name]Mies[/name], [name]Joe[/name], [name]Gus[/name])

I think the name choices would be really more of a coping mechanism than a sib set!
Not sure if it counts as a theme.

Cheers!

I don’t know what I would do. I might do all the same letter and go with A or C since I love a lot of those names. [name]Annabelle[/name], Alosia, [name]Adelaide[/name], [name]Abram[/name], and [name]Amos[/name] ([name]Annie[/name], [name]Allie[/name], [name]Addie[/name], [name]Abe[/name] & Ames :)) or [name]Clara[/name], [name]Cecilia[/name], [name]Charlotte[/name], [name]Callum[/name] & [name]Charles[/name]. I might also just go with my top names: [name]Clara[/name], [name]Amelia[/name] “[name]Mia[/name]”, [name]Dean[/name], [name]Eliot[/name], and [name]Dominic[/name]. The only other thing I would consider is letting then trendy girl in me come out and go with [name]Kenzie[/name], [name]Sloane[/name], [name]Daneel[/name], [name]Priestly[/name] & [name]Declan[/name].
