E, but only two of us. The others are all different.

I have 3 grandparents ending in Y and 3 aunties ending in E and 3 names ending in N (DH, aunty and grandparent).

No other common letters (H, A, P, Y, L) in immediate family, aunts, uncles and grandparents.

RS1987 · 21/03/2026 08:26

immediate family all different - I went the whole hog on siblings and niblings on both mine and DH’s side and got this:

OOO
AAAAAAAA
EEEEEEEEEEEE
L
RRRRR
NNNNNNNNNNN
TT
SS
YYYY
HH
W

it was weirdly fun.

N

followed by R (full names but not necessarily what they go by)

reabies · 23/03/2026 14:22

Me, DH and our 2 kids, no repeated letters.

Me, my parents and siblings, 3x H

DH, his parents and siblings, 2x N, 2x D

RoyalPenguin · 23/03/2026 14:25

Between my parents, my PILs, me and DH, our siblings and our DC - E and D are joint winners.

Me, parents and siblings - 2 x T
Me, hub and kids - none
Hub and his parents and siblings - 2 x A

user1492757084 · 24/03/2026 06:30

My large extended family.

9 x N
8 x Y, E
6 x A
5 x H

3 x and fewer .. T, L, S, D, R, X, M, O, K

I'm surprised that more letters were not represented.
No .. B, C, F, G, I, J, P, Q, U, V, W, Z

E but only just.

KittyHigham · 24/03/2026 06:44

I'd never thought about this but in the 4 generations of my immediate family it's n (Dad and 2 brothers). No other repetitions.

TinyMouseTheatre · 24/03/2026 08:01

E
