What are some names you've seen on siblings that are beautiful individually, but together just did not work?

 

I've been friends with a girl named Kristen for awhile, and today I finally met her older sister... Kristine. Both beautiful names, but why why why would you have them as siblings?

When I was 13/14, my now late father dated this woman who had 4 kids: Nicole, Christopher, Christina, and Michael.  The names are nice on their own, but Christina and Christopher are too close for sibs!  I also grew up knowing both a sibling set and a couple named Stephen and Stephanie.  My kids' names are definitely not gonna be matchy like that, no matter how much I love them.  lol

I used to be friends with a set of twins named Danielle and Daniel, I never understood why their parents did that.

Other sibsets: Chloe, Ashton & Magdalena (all girls and seemed very mismatched to me), Gabriel, Gideon, Georgia, Grace & Rosalie (the break in pattern is so jarring) and Phoenix & Felix (too similar for my tastes)

I don’t mind any of those names their just not the ones I would pair together! :)

Some sibsets I've seen are:

Calvin, Caleb, and Claire- love the names, but the boys both having Cal at the beginning throws me

Andrea, Destiny, Daniel, Dakota - this one is mine. I'm Andrea and my brother Daniel is my half brother on my mom's side. Destiny and Dakota are my half sister and half brother on my dad's side. I've always found it odd that somehow my parents that were not together or in contact when any of my siblings were born happened to use the same letter for the rest of them, but not with me.

Christopher, Brandon, Daniel, Liam, and Clara- this is my brother's sibset on his dad's side. His half brothers and his half sister. The name styles between Daniel and Liam to me seemed to change drastically.

Anthony, Aden, and Alyjah- I see what the parents were going for, but changing the spelling of the classic Elijah to fit the pattern throws me off. Also, I'm not sure if they spell it Aden or Aiden, but the brother I talk to spells it as Aden.

My sister hooked up with a guy whos ex had a daughter with another guy called Tia, the mother and my sisters partner had a son Taiaha prn tie-ha) and daughter Tiara. Now we had my sister and they kept with the T theme for her oldest daughter Taliyah but for some reason named her youngest daughter Jacklynn. So the sibling set is Tia, Taiaha, Tiara, Taliyah and Jacklynn.

I had this friend her name was Madelyn and her dad had a baby with another woman and named her Madison. Both were nicknamed Maddie. And these aren't first names but two of my cousins (who are sisters) have similar middle names. One is Lea (pro. as Lee) and the other is Leann (LeAnn). It's just the lack of creativity for me.

AGHGHGH The middle name one I can see being ok, but the two Maddies? I mean, and it isn't even Eleanor and Penelope when it can be Ellie and Poppy, Nora and Nellie, or Lennie and Nell. It's literally THE ONLY NICKNAME. Wow.

Ooh boy have I got a good one...

 

A family friend of ours who is very into literature just had their second daughter a few days ago: Harper Noelle (after Harper Lee)

 

This wouldn't be too bad... if her sister wasn't named Pearl Amelia (after The Scarlet Letter)

 

Pearl Harper?  :wacko:
