Okay, so I am in the middle of writing a story, and I was just wondering if my sibsets go together. There are two families, one has five children, the other three. I am just looking for opinions on the names and whether I should consider changing any of them. I am keeping the names of the parents as they are.

The Simpson Family
Michael James - Dad - 50
Valerie Elise - Mum - 47
Jude Malachi - 17
Orion James - 13
Jody Roscoe - 10
Alannah/Alana Jasmine - 7
Alexia Josephine - 7

The Baker Family
Jacob Lewis - Dad - 40
Emily Jane - Mum - 37
Amalia Patience - 17
Joshua Luke - 11
Elijah John - 8

I was mainly looking at re-naming my main characters, Jude and Amalia. Some names I had picked out for them before were: Flynn Matthias/Damon Orlando and Cecily Danielle/Felicia Carys.

Do you think these sibsets work, or should I change some of the names?

Thanks in advance

I think Jude Malachi is fine as it is. I love it! For Amalia, you could do Amalia Carys, maybe? I like Amalia
And I think you should spell 'Alana'. Alannah is a bit too much.

You like J names?
I think -could- change a bit Amalia's brothers name. Elijah John -too many J's. And if I may suggest, change Jody Roscoe first name to something close. I really like the sound of it, but Jody not so much... Toby?
