What would you name octuplet girls?

Inspired by the children's book series Sisters Eight, in which the octuplet girls are called Annie, Durinda, Georgia, Jackie, Marcia, Petal, Rebecca and Zinnia.

This reminds me of a game my friend and I used to play with her (many) Barbie dolls, who we pretended were all sisters.

I think they were originally called Dolly, Holly, Molly, Olly (short for Olivia), and Polly. I think Ken was called Wally.

Then when we became (we thought) more sophisticated, they were Bella, Ella, Della, Janella and Isabella.
I will add Estella, Marcella and Nigella to make 8.

@Kljnmw3459

Una, Dua, Threa, Quatra, Cinca, Six, Seven, Octavia.
I'm tracing my family tree just now, and one distant relative almost did this! After six births they ran out of family names so the next three were called Septima, Octavia and Nina Grin I was disappointed that they were followed by Charles and not Decimus.
