I know sisters named Amy Margaret Monroe and Anne Susan Eleanor (who always goes by Annie). Amy and Annie is a bit cutesy, I guess, but I don't think they mind, and the names suit them. Anyway, WDYT of the combos?

Feels very 19th century, not in a good way. I imagine parasols.

Amy Margaret is surprisingly hard to pronounce, and I don't enjoy Amy or Monroe as a given name. Margaret is good, though.
Anne ... well, I must declare my interest! I'm sure I'd like it a lot, even if it hadn't been mine. Susan lacks pizazz, but the rhythm of the three together is fine, which it wouldn't have been if Susan had been replaced by, say, Susannah, Suzanne or Suzette; plus, both Susannah and Suzanne, though I prefer them to Susan, have such prominent Anne sounds that they wouldn't work. Eleanor is timelessly beautiful.

I love Margaret, Susan and Eleanor. Anne is nice enough.
Amy is dated and feels insibstantial. Monroe is awful, though I can forgive it as a second middle name as long as it’s a family name.
Amy and Annie do not pass the call-across-the-house test. At a distance they’re practically the same name, and they’re in for years of, “Were you calling me?” “No, your sister.”
