HelpRe: Three sets of badly named twins.
in reply to a message by Siri
My facial expression is in a deep, sad, scowl.
I hate (I never use the word hate when it comes to names, but now I can't help it) when parents use any kind of theme, rhyme, variation of a name, or same initial name when it comes to naming twins, or any kind of multiple child set. Naming multiples is not a fun game! Yes, it's exciting to be expecting twins, and a joy must fill the parent's hearts at the prospect of what will come, but that should be all the more reason to take the naming process seriously!
It's serious because identity plays a big role in naming twins. Not only do they have the possibility sharing the same facial features, but the same birthday - and who knows - depending upon the parent(s), the same clothing, haircuts, etc., and in the case of the first two poor girls, they are attached to one another, and have names that attach them even the more! Why do parents plague their children with these names? It's cute the first day, and maybe even when their five, but when it's time to host that big birthday bash, and Lacey and Macey are announced to the room of guests, it's no longer cute (I think).
Anyway, I only like the name Rose.
