Mara and Darla in the same sibset seems weird to me, and I don't really like Dash or Marvellous. Other than that, it's nice, I suppose.
I like Andrew, Adam and Amelia.
I think Victoria needs a lesson in a few things... like what keeps causing babies to pop out and not to name a kid Marvellous. I'm 36 cannot fathom how anyone can have that many kids. It's pretty obvious she has a thing for A's and D's.
Regarding Tangerie
-I have to be a member for 6 days before messaging someone, so this is probably some sort of an open letter-
If I wanted to find a nickname for a girl named Tangerie, I think I would cut the "Tan". Gerie, Ger, including a cute-funny "g" pronounciation if her boyfriend is meant to use it would be quite realistic, in my opinion.
I have an acquisant named Nicolina, and because Niki is a quite common name here, her friends call her Lina. Not to mention Yiotis, derieved from Panayiotis, Telis from Aristoteles, Tina from Christina, Nitsa from Helenitsa (the "i" is the same i as information) etc
Respectfully,

I'd have thought two kids with a name starting with Mar- in one family would have been too much, but three?
A remarkably mixed bunch! From the suburban predictability of Victoria, Andrew, Adam, Amelia and Donovan to mild exotica like Adriana, Mara and Delilah, and then down into the murky depths of Dash, Darla (horrible with sister Mara), Marvellous (ditto, in spades), and finally Martalya (sounds somewhat martyred; not without reason).
I would name her next baby Oliver or Olivia. But I would be sorely tempted to name it Finito or Finita. Or, a unisex option, Fullstop.
