Triplets !!

DH and I are expecting triplets after trying for a baby for 4 years and fertility treatments.
We found out last week 2 are boys and 1 girl.
We have been waiting for this for what feels like forever and are over the moon.

We like simple names, classic and timeless, but are now really struggling to pick 3 names. It doesn't help that because the names we like are so popular lots are already in the family so not useable like Daniel or Sophie

For baby boys we like

  • James
  • Joshua
  • Jack
  • Sam
  • Adam
  • Liam
  • Thomas
  • Matthew
  • William

For baby girl we like

  • Emma
  • Katie
  • Lucy
  • Anna

DH loves Sam. Liam and Katie

I prefer Adam, Emma & Liam

Middle names we are hoping to use a variation of our names and our parents names which are

  • Victoria
  • Jane
  • Paula - Paul?
  • Jonathan
  • Michael
  • James

So probably

  • ..... Victoria Jane
  • ..... Jonathan Paul
  • ..... Michael James

Our surname is 1 syllable and starts with S

Which combo do you like best?

I’m no help on the names (I think they’re all lovely, classic and great in any combination) but congratulations!
Incidentally, one of my Italian students had triplets and his wife was entitled to three lots of maternity leaves that she took back to back - how awesome would that be for multiples in this country?!

My daughter has the exact same name as an old page 3 model. Whenever we go anywhere and her name gets shouted people look around expecting to see this model and my toddler is just toddling through with no care for what people are looking at 😂. The name means so much to me and my dh that it doesn't matter who else has the same name. Congratulations how amazing to have triplets xx

Adam James
Thomas Michael
Lucy Victoria

Congratulations! So exciting! I honestly like both of your lists! Especially love Sam as a stand alone name!:)

I think it's sweet you want to honor all your parents, if you're not thrilled about all the names maybe you could do one from each set? Or explore maiden names? Also worth noting, but if they all have his last name...that counts haha

Played around with the middle names, and through a few wildcards in their just in case :)

Other sets you may like:

Adam Jonathan Paul
Belle Victoria Jane
Clark Michael James

Holden James
Grant Michael
Daisy Jane

Emmett Cole
Roman Ezra
Jennifer Jane nn Jenny or JJ if she likes

Sam William
Jay Matthew
Brooke Victoria

Sean Michael Paul
Nick Jonathan James
Thea Jane Victoria

(seems matchy but they all start with a different C sound)
Charlie Adam
Celeste Katie
Clay Thomas

Jesse Cameron
Wells Alexander
Eden Victoria

Jason Eric

Reid Ryan
