10 kids in 10 years, 9 boys and 1 girl . How do you like their names? What would you name this sibset scenario?
Steven- eldest
Christopher
William -twin to Ryan
Ryan -twin to William
Spencer -twin to Max
Max -twin to Spencer
Thomas
Henry
Lily
Peter
I appreciate that all of these are relatively tame and harmless names, but they do lean a little to hard into "boring". I'm not a fan of Spencer or Ryan personally. The others are fine. A few I would consider using. It's just the vibe of the sibset is very "dry" to me like saltine crackers. I will add what I would name a 9 boy and (1 girl 2nd to last) sibset shortly. What would you name this lineup? Again, 9 boys with 1 girl second to last.
Please rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.

I've followed them for a while online but stopped because it felt like the older boys really didn't like doing the videos. It felt exploitative to actually watch kids being forced to do something they dislike or find annoying so that their parents could make have viral videos.
Also they are Mormon and I agree, for Mormons these are legit very tame names! It's not a diss, but Mormon names tend to be very original and these parents stayed with very classic boys names.
It's fun to imagine the name list but oh boy do 2 sets of twins sound like a nightmare! Here I go:
1. Thomas (it's in their sibset but what can I say? Always been a favorite of mine)
2. Henri and Édouard
3. Florian et Mathias
4. Victor
5. Axel
6. Léonard
7. Juliette
8. Théodore

Yeah, I don't agree with the ethical implications of family channels either and haven't followed any in years. But my FYP knows I watch multiples and large family videos sometimes, so often I still get tossed those. It's probably still just as bad of me to be honest. I think I'm lucky to have not grown up on camera.
I do appreciate that they are not something crazy, but they are a little boring. Then again, the names I tend to like enough to actually use are boring. I love William, Max, Henry and Lily. Boys names are so much harder for me.

The names are all fine.
It's not the most exciting lineup, but it's not the most boring either.
At least everyone has a real name and all the names are spelled correctly.
Mine:
1. Sebastian
2. Magnus
3. Victor - twin to Daniel
4. Daniel - twin to Victor
5. Julian - twin to Percy
6. Perseus "Percy" - twin to Julian
7. Gabriel
8. Saskia
9. James "Jamie"

I love James "Jamie" too. I would use it IRL honestly
Maybe they have interesting middle names to add spice? The names are all fine.
I really like Peter. Thomas is meh. I am not crazy about Spencer. It makes me think of a jacket and the British family. Stephen > Steven. Lily is fine, but I wish it was Cecily or Linnea to have something a little less popular.

I like Henry, Thomas, Lily and Peter as a sibset. The others are not my style. In real life I would use Henry and Thomas. Henry was actually one of the names we considered for our son.
I'm happy it's 9 boys and 1 girl, it's much easier to name boys.

Wowee! I'll crit them first, and then try my own.
Not Steven, but Stephen is OK
Christopher nms
William is excellent
Ryan is awful
Spencer is just as bad
Max is just OK
Thomas, nn Tom, is fine
Henry is stodgy and dusty
Lily is bland and sentimental
Peter is my son!
So, I'll start with him. Family/honouring names get *
Peter*
Ian*
William*
Robin*
David*
Keith*
Adrian
Fraser*
Laura
Gareth
I always wanted a Laura daughter, but I also always knew I'd use Beatrice, and it would have been too Italian-poetry.

Ooh! Fun! I'd go:
1. Sebastian (Aster)
2. Florian (Flori)
3. Vincent (Vince)
4. Tobias (Toby)
5. Lysander (Andy)
6. Romeo (twin brother to Dante)
7. Dante (twin brother to Romeo)
8. Laurence (Laurie)
9. Cecilia (Cece)
10. Theodore (Theo)
It probably goes without saying that I have a thing for nicknames, but any of these would be just as beautiful without.

Honestly, this scenario would stress me (I mean naming wise outside of the obvious logistics) because my favorite boy names tend to be A names that are all somewhat similar in style and sound, so it would take great effort to not mush too much similarity into the lineup. With this in mind, today I will say:
Adrian
Victor
Sebastian "Bastian"
Julius
Henry
Lance
Niall
Duncan
Daphne - in my head she & Duncan are the twins
Edmund
I feel like Daphne is relatively simple but hyper feminine to have her both blend in and stand out as the only girl of the lineup
