TLC's polygamy kids...I was curious!

General Name Discussion

I’m watching [name_m]Say[/name_m] Yes to the Dress, and every commercial break they are running an advert for “My Five Wives” - yet another show about polygamy. When they mentioned 24 kids, I got super curious, and had to go find out what they were all named! Their father is [name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_m]Williams[/name_m], and every first born boy is named [name_u]Brady[/name_u] (wtf!?)

mom - [name_m]Paulie[/name_m]
Calistia [name_f]Karlie[/name_f]
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m]
[name_f]Madeline[/name_f] [name_f]Tamar[/name_f]
[name_f]September[/name_f] Marcine
[name_f]Maura[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Camry[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f]

mom - [name_f]Robyn[/name_f]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f]
[name_f]Lauren[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_u]Dane[/name_u]
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m] [name_m]Garrett[/name_m]
[name_m]Trey[/name_m] [name_u]Mason[/name_u]

mom - [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_u]Kimberly[/name_u] [name_f]Beth[/name_f]
[name_u]Taylor[/name_u] [name_f]Elaine[/name_f]
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_m]Brandon[/name_m] [name_m]Elijah[/name_m]

mom - [name_f]Nonie[/name_f]
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_m]Paul[/name_m]
[name_f]Rachel[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Marissa[/name_f] [name_f]Darleen[/name_f]
Aeyden [name_m]Frank[/name_m] (yikes…what a spelling)
Tailee [name_f]Mae[/name_f] (the names stared out so normal…)

mom - [name_f]Rhonda[/name_f]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u] [name_f]Christina[/name_f]
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_u]Lake[/name_u]
[name_f]Arwen[/name_f] [name_f]Estelle[/name_f]
[name_m]Nikolas[/name_m] [name_m]Frank[/name_m]

Most of the kids have fairly normal names, with a few Nameberry-esque ones and some seriously awful (Aeyden? Tailee?)

The other show ([name_f]Sister[/name_f] Wives) is fathered by [name_u]Kody[/name_u] [name_m]Brown[/name_m] -

mom - [name_f]Meri[/name_f]
[name_f]Mariah[/name_f]

mom - [name_f]Janelle[/name_f]
[name_u]Logan[/name_u]
[name_u]Madison[/name_u]
[name_u]Hunter[/name_u]
[name_m]Garrison[/name_m]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m]
[name_f]Savannah[/name_f]

mom - [name_f]Christine[/name_f]
[name_u]Aspyn[/name_u] (f)
[name_m]Mykelti[/name_m] (f)
[name_f]Paedon[/name_f] (m)
Gwendlyn
[name_f]Ysabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Truely[/name_f] (f…and a word name that’s misspelled wrong…yikes)

mom - [name_f]Robyn[/name_f]
[name_m]David[/name_m]
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f]
[name_f]Breann[/name_f]
[name_m]Solomon[/name_m]

Yeesh - it looks like the moms named the kids with no input from the dad, because some are common/normal and then there’s the one sibset that’s just horrendous!

Thoughts? The only ones I like are [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f], [name_f]Maura[/name_f], [name_u]Eden[/name_u] & [name_m]Solomon[/name_m].

[name_f]Camry[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] – “Mom was hoping for a [name_f]Camry[/name_f], but Dad gave her a Corolla.”
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] – “Not to confuse me with my brothers, just call me Broshua!”
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_u]Dane[/name_u] - “[name_m]Just[/name_m] call me Brane!”
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] - “[name_m]Just[/name_m] call me Brames!”
[name_u]Brady[/name_u] [name_m]Paul[/name_m] - “[name_m]Just[/name_m] call me Braul!”
Aeyden [name_m]Frank[/name_m] – “Aeyyyy! I’m the Fronz!”

Soooo, are they all “[name_u]Brady[/name_u] W.” at school? Or does each have the last name of his respective mother? Maybe they go by first and middle, when they’re at home?

Too many Bradys!

LOL! I’d probably watch it if that were what he called himself.

Guys sounds like a piece of work.

Needs a personal harem of 5 wives, yet no wives are allowed their own outside relationships (ownership complex to the max), and names [name_f]EVERY[/name_f] firstborn after himself (another sign of an ownership complex, hard to tell by who the most).

I can’t tell if it’s narcissism, extreme self-esteem complex, some combination thereof, or something even worse. Regardless, the patriarchy is so thick, I’m half way to pregnant.

You are my new favorite person.
