Sibsets all same letter?

General Name Discussion
1

If you were going to have all your kids have names with the same first letter, what letter would you choose?

I would chose M or A I think.

Then I could use [name]Milena[/name], [name]Margo[/name], [name]Mae[/name], [name]Miriam[/name], [name]Matilda[/name], [name]Mila[/name], [name]Macallister[/name], [name]Martin[/name], [name]Miles[/name]/[name]Milo[/name],

Or [name]Adelaide[/name]/[name]Ada[/name], [name]Abigail[/name], [name]Agnes[/name], [name]Audrey[/name], [name]Aria[/name], [name]Adeline[/name], [name]Agatha[/name], [name]Anya[/name], [name]Arlo[/name], [name]Albert[/name], [name]Arther[/name], [name]Abel[/name]

Those are probably my favorite letters. I wouldn’t actually do this, but its fun to think about.

R, A or E for me, those are the letters that I’ve got most names for despite none of my favourite names starting with those letters. Ones on my list: [name]Riley[/name] (b), [name]Roland[/name], [name]Roman[/name], [name]Rowan[/name], [name]Rachel[/name], [name]Rae[/name], [name]Roberta[/name], [name]Ramona[/name], [name]Roxana[/name] and [name]Ruby[/name] // [name]Edmund[/name], [name]Elias[/name], [name]Ellis[/name], [name]Elijah[/name], [name]Evan[/name], Elyan, [name]Elena[/name], [name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]Ember[/name], and [name]Eve[/name] // [name]Abraham[/name], [name]Albert[/name], [name]Alexander[/name], [name]Amadeus[/name], [name]Arthur[/name], [name]Atticus[/name], [name]Alaric[/name], [name]Alexandra[/name], [name]Anya[/name], [name]Arianna[/name], [name]Antonia[/name] :slight_smile:

I think people who do this end up picking names they like rather than love by the third or fourth child.

I wouldn’t do it, but hypothetically, if were to do so (and I could be guaranteed mostly girls), I would love to do a V theme. So many lovely names! [name]Veronica[/name], [name]Victoria[/name], [name]Valentina[/name], [name]Vivian[/name], [name]Vanessa[/name], [name]Valerie[/name], [name]Viola[/name], [name]Violet/name, [name]Verity[/name], [name]Vesper/name, [name]Verona[/name]… For boys, there’s [name]Victor[/name], [name]Vincent[/name], [name]Vladimir[/name], and [name]Valentin[/name], but I couldn’t have [name]Victor[/name] and [name]Victoria[/name] or [name]Valentin[/name] and [name]Valentina[/name], and [name]Vladimir[/name] is a bit much (although I do have Eastern European heritage). That would make things a bit tough. (Although I only want four kids anyway, so it could probably be doable if I gave up [name]Victoria[/name] and [name]Valentina[/name].)

Otherwise, A, C, E, M, and S have a good selection for both sexes, but I really do love “V” most of all!

5

I would do C! [name]Christian[/name], [name]Calvin[/name], [name]Colin[/name], [name]Chandler[/name], [name]Charles[/name] “[name]Charlie[/name]”, [name]Caspian[/name], [name]Conrad[/name], [name]Clyde[/name], [name]Caleb[/name] for boys, [name]Cordelia[/name]/[name]Coralie[/name]/[name]Coraline[/name] “[name]Cora[/name]”, [name]Caroline[/name] “[name]Cara[/name]” or just [name]Cara[/name], [name]Claudia[/name], [name]Christiana[/name], [name]Chelsea[/name], [name]Carla[/name], [name]Cleo[/name], [name]Charlotte[/name], [name]Calla[/name] for girls. (Not all together of course - but those are my favorite C names!)

6

I seem to like A, E, and M the most
[name]Amelia[/name], [name]Adelaide[/name], [name]Avalon[/name], [name]Anna[/name], [name]Agatha[/name], [name]Ariadne[/name], Aremé, [name]Arabella[/name], [name]Adele[/name], ”ine, [name]Aurelia[/name], [name]Aoibhe[/name], Aelia, [name]Aeronwy[/name], [name]Alfred[/name], [name]Arthur[/name], [name]Archibald[/name], [name]Alasdair[/name], [name]Angus[/name], [name]Atticus[/name], Aeredin, [name]Asher[/name]

[name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]Emmeline[/name], [name]Eithne[/name], [name]Eleanor[/name], [name]Elowen[/name], Emalise, [name]Esme[/name], [name]Eloise[/name], [name]Elsje[/name], [name]Eilidh[/name], [name]Etta[/name], [name]Effie[/name], [name]Ember[/name], [name]Evelia[/name], [name]Evia[/name], Eiry, [name]Edra[/name], [name]Edgar[/name], [name]Ezra[/name], [name]Elliot[/name], [name]Ewan[/name], [name]Ephraim[/name], [name]Evander[/name], [name]Eamon[/name]

[name]Mabel[/name], [name]Martha[/name], [name]Mercy[/name], [name]Mary[/name], Miette, [name]Mirabelle[/name], [name]Magnolia[/name], [name]Mackenzie[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name], [name]Monroe[/name], [name]Milo[/name], [name]Matthew[/name], [name]Michael[/name], [name]Marius[/name], [name]Marshall[/name], [name]Mayer[/name], [name]Morgan[/name]

I definitely wasn’t saying I would do it. I would worry that I would run out of names for children later, and then have no choice but to chose one I don’t like.

I knew somebody who did all K names. I only have 2 K names on my list right now. I could never do O, B or H.

I loved the V selection.

8

Possible with A or M

[name]Arthur[/name], [name]Adam[/name], [name]Aleta[/name], [name]Aria[/name], [name]Amelina[/name], [name]Alice[/name], [name]Aline[/name], [name]Ava[/name], [name]Abrielle[/name], [name]August[/name]…

[name]Morgan[/name] (boy), [name]Melisende[/name], [name]Melody[/name], [name]Melora[/name], [name]Macey[/name], [name]Mabel[/name], [name]Madeleine[/name], [name]Martin[/name], [name]Milo[/name]…

9

I’d do S or A. Obviously it’s not my intention to do though since my daughter is a T.

My sister was planning on doing all L’s after herself (think [name]Kris[/name] Kardashian and her daughters :roll: ). She’s changed her mind and instead plans on two C’s & two L names.

10

I actually agree, A or M. Or maybe even S. There’s not a lot of letters that I love a bunch of names for both letters. For example, I [name]LOVE[/name] “H” names for girls, but can’t think of one H name I would but on a boy. Anyway, but same letter siblings would allow me to use:

[name]Alexander[/name], [name]Adam[/name], [name]Ava[/name], [name]Anna[/name], [name]Autumn[/name], [name]Alyssa[/name], [name]Aria[/name], [name]Alice[/name], etc. (let’s just make sure that I have mostly daughters . . .)
[name]Mark[/name], [name]Max[/name], [name]Mason[/name], [name]Mallory[/name], [name]Maura[/name], [name]Melody[/name], [name]Molly[/name], [name]Maeve[/name], [name]Maisie[/name], and [name]Madison[/name]
[name]Scott[/name], [name]Simon[/name], [name]Spencer[/name], [name]Sean[/name], [name]Seamus[/name], [name]Sebastian[/name], [name]Stella[/name], [name]Summer[/name], [name]Sadie[/name], [name]Soleil[/name], and [name]Sage[/name]

My parents named us all with M names- [name]Michael[/name], [name]Meghan[/name], [name]Matthew[/name], Matricia. My grandpa wanted to do a V theme, but only got to name 5 of the 8 kids they had- [name]Victoria[/name], [name]Veronica[/name], [name]Vivian[/name], [name]Virginia[/name], [name]Vince[/name] (the other three were [name]Jerry[/name], [name]Orval[/name], and [name]Abraham[/name]). I also know a family that alternated between A and M names- [name]Alicia[/name], [name]Michelle[/name], [name]Andrew[/name], [name]Micah[/name], [name]Abigail[/name], [name]Michaela[/name], [name]Amy[/name], [name]Marcus[/name].

Personally, I wanted to name all our kids with A names, but we ended up alternating them between first and middle names- Aubriella [name]Braelyn[/name], [name]Kaia[/name] Avalon, Aidyn [name]Ryker[/name], Taylee-[name]Rose[/name] Amethyst. Not sure if we’ll keep that going with future children, though.

If I could go back and name all my kids with A names I think it would be awesome.
My favorites (besides the ones I’ve already used)- Girls: [name]Acacia[/name], Aerilyn, [name]Amelie[/name], [name]Aislyn[/name], Alisamber, [name]Alyxia[/name], [name]Anwyn[/name], Anyssa, [name]Aria[/name], [name]Ariana[/name], [name]Arianwen[/name], [name]Aspen[/name], Avalia, Avonlea, [name]Azalea[/name]. Boys: Achai, [name]Adriel[/name], Alexavier, [name]Asher[/name], Atreyu, Avens, [name]Avery[/name], [name]Axton[/name].

I have issues.

I love tonnes and tonnes of V names for girls but only [name]Vincent[/name] for boys.

I love tonnes and tonnes of J names for boys but only [name]Jessamine[/name] for a girl.

Hmm…
[name]Zelda[/name], [name]Zephirine[/name], and [name]Zuzana[/name] & [name]Zacharias[/name], [name]Zebulon[/name], and [name]Zane[/name] - [name]Love[/name] all these names individually (no, I’m not down to “just like” and I could even keep going awhile!) but the only thing more garish than an initial theme is a Z initial theme!

13

I would do A, C, O or S. Possibly also E.

[name]Amaryllis[/name], [name]Ailsa[/name], [name]Alice[/name], [name]Aya[/name], [name]Adrian[/name], [name]Asa[/name], [name]Ajax[/name], [name]Arthur[/name]
[name]Cilla[/name], [name]Cosima[/name], [name]Coraline[/name], [name]Cillian[/name], [name]Cyrus[/name]
Esmé, [name]Elodie[/name], [name]Eamonn[/name], [name]Emrys[/name]
[name]Oriana[/name], [name]Ondine[/name], [name]Ophelia[/name], [name]Orlando[/name], [name]Orville[/name]
[name]Sybella[/name], [name]Susannah[/name], [name]Seth[/name], [name]Soren[/name], [name]Sebastian[/name]

14

If I had to I would choose A or E… I already have [name]Hazel[/name] but I don’t really like any H names for boys.

If I choose A I would use : [name]August[/name], [name]Arthur[/name], [name]Avery[/name] (b), [name]Alice[/name], [name]Axel[/name], [name]Alexander[/name], [name]Allison[/name], [name]Annabelle[/name], [name]Amelia[/name] ect…

If I choose E I would use: [name]Edward[/name], [name]Evander[/name]/[name]Evan[/name], [name]Ellery[/name], [name]Emma[/name], [name]Emily[/name], [name]Ewan[/name], [name]Eliza[/name], [name]Eloise[/name], [name]Elodie[/name], Elowyn ect…

They’re all such beautiful names!

15

I would choose C or A.
[name]Aspen[/name], [name]Addison[/name], [name]Atlas[/name], [name]Alice[/name], [name]Alyssa[/name], [name]Alexandra[/name], [name]Alana[/name], [name]Alexander[/name], [name]Andrew[/name], [name]Armani[/name].

[name]Clare[/name], [name]Clarissa[/name], [name]Cynthia[/name], [name]Celeste[/name], [name]Charles[/name], [name]Charlie[/name], [name]Casper[/name]

16

A: [name]August[/name], [name]Aurora[/name], [name]Archer[/name], [name]Amelia[/name]
E: [name]Elias[/name], [name]Emmeline[/name], [name]Edmund[/name], [name]Evelyn[/name]
M: [name]Maxwell[/name], [name]Milena[/name], [name]Micah[/name], [name]Matilda[/name]
O: [name]Orion[/name], [name]Ophelia[/name], [name]Oscar[/name], [name]Ottilie[/name]
S: [name]Silas[/name], [name]Serafina[/name], [name]Stella[/name], [name]Sebastian[/name]

17

I’d probably do E - [name]Elinor[/name], [name]Elizabeth[/name], [name]Emily[/name], [name]Elena[/name], [name]Eliana[/name], [name]Emmanuel[/name], [name]Elias[/name], [name]Ethan[/name],

Or call me crazy Z- [name]Zoe[/name], [name]Zahara[/name], [name]Zachary[/name], [name]Ziven[/name] (new boy crush, but the SO gave me the stink eye…)

18

you could do it kind of opposite. My friend and her husband names both end in N so they did that with all the kids: [name]Rosalyn[/name], [name]Keegan[/name], [name]Evelyn[/name], [name]Lillian[/name], [name]Vivian[/name]. All their middle names, including parents, start with M.

19

Fs first: [name]Fred/Frode[/name] and [name]Freya/Fflur[/name].
Then Es: [name]Elinor[/name]/[name]Eluned[/name] and [name]Edmund[/name]/[name]Ebbe[/name].

I would do this for 2 children of opposite gender, if they were genuinely my favourite 2 names (which [name]Fred[/name] & [name]Freya[/name] were for years) but not for children of the same gender, nor for 3 or more children. Cringeworthy!

I know two very large homeschool families who both had J sibsets of 9 and 11 children. I also know another homeschool family with a V sibset… Because of the stereotype, I’d avoid doing that to my kids.
