Just a fun game! If you found out you were pregnant with triplet girls.. what would you name them?!

•would you make them matchy such as same letter initials
•would you make them completely different
•would you give them the same middle names or different?

I can't be 100% sure but I think I'd pick out of..

Daphne
Cecily/Cecilia (CeCe)
Penelope
Felicie
Adelie
Margaux

Please tell me what you would choose from! X

Irish names

Hmmm...maybe an Irish theme (I’m Irish). I didn’t give my DC Irish makes and slightly regretful of that sometimes.

I would pick names that were similar in number of letters/sounds

More seriously.. Juliet, Martha and Alexandra.

Definitely the same middle name:

April May
June May
January May

But only if they were born in October.

WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll · 03/03/2021 10:15

Amy, May and Mya - and I'd just be glad they weren't quads, thus avoiding having to have a DD called Yam Grin

Rhoda, Jane and Frederica - Rod, Jane and Freddy for short (showing my age there).

Rag, Tag and Bobtail

Hamble, Humpty and Little Ted

Posy, Perkin and Pootle

I think I'd like Grace, Eilidh and Thea. Also on the short list are Eden, Clara and Callie.

Nervousdave · 03/03/2021 04:14

I know someone who named twins Emma and Emilia. Do we think a triplet would have been Emily?

Actually maybe Penelope instead of Martha. I think it sounds better with the other 2.
