Baby Names

Flower named triplets

All this talk about names that match for siblings and I wanted to share...

My friend just had triplets yesterday and named them:

Lily Claire

Rose Alexis

Violet Elise

Re: Flower named triplets

  • I love that! Matching but, not.   It's the perfect way the create a set of 3 without it being corny, IMO.

  • I knew a family way back that named their 3 girls after flowers... not triplets, but still.  They were Ivy, Daisy, and Lily.  At the time (I was in elementary school) I thought it was dumb, but now they're college-age and it's not as weird to me anymore.... And apparently they're all gorgeous and one of them is a model now.

    Does anyone else watch the BBC show "Keeping up Appearances"?  Such a funny show- all the sisters are named after flowers... Rose, Violet, Hyacinth and Daisy.  And Hyacinth's last name is Bucket but she insists that it's pronounced "Bouquet".  Hilarious.

  • I know lots of people on here will disagree, but I kind of like some of the "matched sets" of names: Lily, Rose, Violet, Iris; Hope, Faith, Joy, etc

  • I like it! it's cute.

     

    one of my teachers in high school named her three kids Hope, Faith and Justus - kind of weird. (2 girls and a boy)

  • There are 3 sisters that go to my church (not triplets) but the oldest is Libby, the middle is Meredith and the youngest is Suzanne.  Their dad always jokes, "In case you forget the order, just think of Large, Medium, Small." 

    Har di ha.

    I thought of Keeping Up Appearances as well. Love that show!

    I don't like matchy names, but I must admit these are good picks.

  • That's really cute!
  • I love them...too darling.

  • Am I the only one who thinks that is totally cheesy and gag-worthy?

    I think the names are all beautiful but together, total eyeroll.

    My aunt's mother is Garnet and she has sisters Opal and Ruby. I also think that's bad. And I know sisters Hope, Faith and Grace, and a sibling set of Texas cities (Dallas, Austin and Tyler). 

    I hate matchy-matchy. Coordinating, yes. Matchy, no.

  • I like it!  :)
  • That's better then the poor girls on MTV's "True Life: I Have Embarrassing Parents." They were triplets whose parents were professional clowns (came to their high school dressed in clown costumes, drove a clownish car, etc.). Their last name was Graham and their parents named them Candy, Millie, and Holly (Candy Graham, Millie Graham, Holly Graham)....

  • I'm actually surprised at the responses here too- I was prepared to see MANY more negative comments about this.  I guess you never know what to expect from you girls!  I personally wouldn't do this either (too cheesy for me) but it's just funny to know that lots of people do this type of thing.

  • Awe that's so sweet!!  Love it!

    WAY better than DH's triplet aunts, Harriet, Marriette and Janet.

  • A tad matchy for me...I would be OK with those as MNs though.

    I think it's awful, and completely 'gag worthy'.
