A guy I work with has a nephew and niece called Sam and Ella which are lovely names but it always sounds like he is talking about Salmonella...

Love Matthew, Mark, Luke and Angus!

I used to know a family with 4 girls, Tina, Tara, Tracey and Tanya. Children of the 80's as you can probably guess. I suppose once you've done 2 the same you have to commit to it and continue the theme.

Mary Beth, Mary Pat, Mary Jo and Mary Kay.

I love Matthew, Mark, Luke and Angus! The Scottish apostle, written out in the authorised version perhaps!

I knew two brothers in the 70s when I was at uni in Glasgow, called Jesus and Moses.
Also knew a family of 4 girls, all called -Anne: Carolanne, Maryanne etc. Mum's name was ............ Anne!

It's amazing how little imagination some people have. What a shame for these children growing up being called something so similar to a sibling. It's not like there is a shortage of names.

There is a girl on MTV Teen Mom who has twins called Ali and Aleeah.

My DC names don't really go though. DS1 and DD have very traditional names but DS2 has a name that some may consider chav. So they probably sound odd together.

I've just read yesterday's Guardian. There's an article about the Pheonix family. There seems to be an odd one out here, too:

River
Rain
Joaquin
Summer
Liberty
