The parents did an excellent job here. I especially like Susanna and Peter. The only one I'm not wild about is Gottfried.

What a lovely set of names. I particularly like: Susanna (although I prefer Susannah), Elizabeth, Christian, Emil, Johannes and August. The one thing that bothers me as that the first two children have the same names as their parents - I realize this is what was often done in older days but it still annoys me as I find it doesn't give them their own identity.

It's a pretty sibset overall but I think Susanna and Anna as sisters is a bit much.
