[Opinions] A few sib sets
Here are a few of sibling sets from the tv/newspaper today. WDYT?
Kieran
Kailum
Zach
Zoey
Zander
Zavier
Zeydn
Zeke
Zion
Zeppelin
Dusty Violet
Trilby Fox
The two brothers whose names start with K are twins. Kailum is pronounced Kaylum. In the second set Zeydn is a girl as is I assume Zoey but the article didn’t give if the other children were boys or girls. The third set are a sister and brother.Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from

I think Kieran and Kailum go well with each other. As would Kieran and Kayden. I went to middle school with boy girl twins named Jennifer(Jennie) and Joseph (Joey). I like those names together. I’m not a real fan of using repeating letters for sibling names. It’s fine if you have three or less kids but when you have more it’s difficult to find a good name with the same beginning letter.
I love the names Zavier, Zeke, Zander, and Kieran for boys, and find them very handsome!
Zeppelin is hilarious! I can't guess the gender: however, if it's f then they could have used Zephne, the name of a professor of medicine in a big local hospital. Generally, I don't enjoy sibs with the same initials, and these two groups are no exception. Dusty Violet is very odd: if Miss Havisham had violets on her wedding table, it would be perfect. As for Trilby (a man's hat) and Fox (an English surname and a wild animal), it makes less than no sense. I suppose they just liked it. Or Fox might be a family surname. Moi, I'm glad I'm not related to either set.
Where I live, "dusty" is used to indicate someone who has outdated, often bigoted views :') I've seen it rise in popularity as a name, but that colloquialism makes me cringe into my soul.

Dusty and Trilby (on a girl) are guilty pleasures for me.Kailum and Zeydn hurt my eyes.
Uhm... Kieran is nice?...
Violet and Fox make nice mnsThat Z sibset is a classic example on why you should NOT have a 'theme' for a subset. You end up with ridiculousness like Zeppelin in the end :/
I was about to say I (kind of) like Trilby then I read it’s on a boy…ew. I don’t care for any of the others.
