The Dionne Quintuplets
All this quints talk got me thinking about the famous French-Canadian Dionne quints, born in 1934, (and which is actually quite a sad story). I knew their first names but didn't know the middles, so I looked them up, and here they are:Yvonne Édouilda Marie
Annette Lillianne Marie
Cécile Marie Émilda
Émilie Marie Jeanne
Marie Reine AlmaTheir parents names were Oliva-Edouard (father) and Elzire (mother), and their other siblings were/are Ernest, Rose Marie, Therese, Daniel, Pauline, Leo, Oliva Jr., Victor, and Claude.Some neat names! I find French-Canadian naming practices really interesting. They often use unorthodox spellings and obscure saints names.
