One member of my family gave all her three sons the same first name, which was also her husband's first name. The girl but the feminine version of it (the same name but with an a on the end). The boys are mostly known by their middle names but all the same I think it is pretty weird.

Strikes me as serious lack of imagination

Mailies?? families

I've met a couple of mailies where the dc all have very similar names and I think it's a it odd.

Jack and Jake, Kayleigh and Hayley are the two that I remember thinking at.

well she is a bit so that's understandable. its how similar they are that baffles me. it would be like having two children called thomas and thomasina, alexandra and alexander, christian and christiana, kristy and kirsty, emma and emily, jadie and jodie - you get the picture.
