Very nice...I really like all of them, except prefer Jenny as a nn [but I don't like Jennifer at all :(], prefer Miriam to Maryam, slightly prefer spelling Rebekah, and though Barnaby is cute, it's a little dorky. I really love all of the others! Excellent choices by the parents.

The mixture of popular and unusual names is a bit too much for me but they all do have the same 'feel', which is nice. I like:
Samuel
Naomi
Anna
Peter
David
Barnaby

Cool! I love large families and am actually keeping a running list of big families and this one will definitely be added to my list! :)I love John (with nickname Jack), Jeanette, Samuel (a bit popular), Naomi, Rebecca, Jenny (as a full name or as a nn for Guinevere), Anna, Rachel (though I prefer Rachael), Nathan (I adore Nathaniel more but Nathan is cute), Bethany, Maryam is intriguing, Peter, David.Wow! The only two I don't like that well are Verity and Barnaby and even those are alright! :)I think their names work together very well though they are a bit popular. Thanks for sharing! :)

I'm glad you could make use of it! I'll be sure to keep my eye out for any other stories about large families...they do appear now and again. :-)

I know large families are a strange thing to collect but I really like seeing the name patterns that form. In large families there's certainly plenty of chance to see what the parent's naming style is! :)Thanks again! :)
