[Opinions] New triplets
New set of identical triplets was born in Pittsburgh to Amanda and Matt. They named them Matthew Aaron, Nathan Brady and Michael Christopher.
The boys’ middle initials — A, B and C — reflect their birth order.-I like all the names (and if they 'had' to have a theme at least it's in the middle name spot), but they are a bit dull. I also don't like that only one of them is named after the father. Hopefully the other names are also honoring.Source: http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/33221576/ns/today-parenting_and_family/

I love Nathan and Matthew.

All of the names are alright. I don't think that the A,B, C thing is that bad.

Yep, nice but incredibly boring! The fact that only one is named after the dad also irks me. I also don't like how two of them have the same first initial, but that's a little OCD irritation I have with any sibset. And I do like the little theme there, so props to the parents for doing that in a less obvious way but still have that connectedness. (Is that a word? Heh.)

I don't mind that theme...its kind of cool really. And it doesn't bother me that only one is named after his father. Only one of my brothers are named after our father- it is weird to just name all your kids after yourself and generally the tradition is that the first born son is named for their father and that is what they did.I think the names are boring and dull but much better than a lot of names we see, especially for a group of multiples where there is such a big temptation to do something matchy and cutesy

I like:Brady.I like the way they paired the names, just not the names themselves... if that makes any sense.

It's cute that they used A, B and C as their middle names. I'm not really a fan of any of the names though. My brother's name is Christopher Michael. It seems like Michael and Christopher are used together a lot.
