Re: If you had children tomorrow
in reply to a message by Cora
I love these hypothetical 'challenges' but the thought of carrying, birthing, and then caring for 3 or more babies at one time makes me extremely nauseous. :( [Bear in mind that I work in an NICU and we've had 50+ babies lately, so I have had a 4-baby assignment lately and it has sucked (even though they are "well" babies). LOL]
I'm not currently "in love" with many of my name choices lately, but a lot of my old favorites are still there. I'm also started to find myself drawn to "simpler" names--those that are still uncommon and old-fashioned but that are also short & sweet to some degree, and not difficult to spell or pronounce. Maybe I'm simplying my life as I age. :b Also, I've also included one or more family names in each combo as this is something that's very important to me (they are denoted with a *).
Ok, enough with the rambling......
B/B/B/G/G/G sextuplets:
Henry Franklin*
Miles Reed*
Rowan August*
Eve Candis*
Iris Shirley*
Nora Elspeth*
= Henry, Miles, Rowan, Evie, Iris, & Nora
Ok, those were my "practical" naming tastes at work. Since I'm bored, I'm now going to name my sextuplets names I love without worrying about honoring family members or pronunciation and spelling, or a name being too 'out there'/popular/matchy, etc. :)
B/B/B/G/G/G sextuplets:
August Quinn
Emmett Graham
Oscar Lucian
Clara Violet
Isla Beatrice
Rosalie Maeve
= Gus, Emmett, Oscar, Clara, Isla, & Rosie

Both sets are wonderful!
Nora Elspeth, Isla Beatrice (love love love), Clara Violet, Rosalie Maeve, Rowan August, Emmett Graham, Oscar Lucian, Iris, Evie, Henry, Miles, Gus and Rosie are all terrific. I don't know why I bothered to list because that's almost all of them, but yeah.
I don't think your "out there" set is at all difficult or odd. Truly, I like both sets.
