Help[Opinions] Re: What would you name triplets?
in reply to a message by RegalAmethyst
If I'm not fettered by the children's surname or their father's input I'd say:
B/B/B: Desmond Charles, Cormac Timothy and Malachy Thomas
G/G/G: Mairead Cathleen, Niamh Annmarie, and Aoife (?)
G/G/B: Mairead Cathleen, Niamh Annmarie, Desmond Thomas (Thomas honors both sides and if I only get one boy Thomas has to be in there)
B/B/G: Desmond Thomas (Thomas is my father as well as dh's mn and dh's brother and dh's father's mn), Cormac Arthur (if I don't get three boys I can't use dh's three brothers for mns as above. Usuing Arthur is more diplomatic) and Niamh Annmarie
Mns are honoring. I would say Margaret as the mn for Aoife, but I've already got a Mairead. So if anyone has any ideas for a nice mn for Aoife I'd be glad to hear it. She might get the only non-family mn but oh, well.

Bear, you have fabulous taste as always! Your sets are gorgeous, but I have to say, I am in love with your boy sibset. They're so distinguished.
I wish I had some Aoife combos made up, but I've never found Aoife easy to pair. Aoife Magdalene / Madailein, Aoife Rachel / Raicheal, Aoife Roisin, Aoife Francisca?

Ooh, Frances is dear to my heart so Aoife Francisca could be in the imaginary running.
Thanks for the compliment. :-) But my distinguished imaginary boys are something of a disappointment to my dh and myself. We had such dreams for them, but all they want to do is idle time away on the internet. Where do they get that from . . . ?

Aoife Rosalind and Aoife Morwen are fantastic. :-D
I wish I had a relative named Rosalind so I could justify it more. Morwen is at least Celtic so it has a better chance of making the imaginary cut.
I had thought of Aoife Caroline but not Aoife Coraline. Interesting. I'll chew on it for a while.

No, we're not a rosey bunch I'm afraid. It's funny -- a lot of the same names are used in dh's and my immediate families. A lot of my mns kills two (sometimes three) birds with one stone. But not one Rose, dammit. But thanks for the effort. :-)
