Do you like it when parents make their children's names themed?

My friends name is Cassandra Raven, and her sisters are Alexandra Robyn and Sasha Wren. This seems a little too themed, since all their middle names are birds that start with the 'r' saound. Also, their first names are the same name in different languages. I guess Alexander (yea, i know it's a boys name) is what they are ALL derived from. Alexandra is english, and Cassandra is greek, while sasha is russian.





I guess i kinda went off topic here with that example, but i was wondering if most people think it is cool when parents make all their childrens names themed (includes alliteration), or if you think it's weird.

Do you like it when parents make their children's names themed?
Think is unique, and your friends children have beautiful names that roll off the tongue.... I think though that parents can go overboard... can you imagine apple having a brother or sister named banana? LOL! :)
Reply:I think that is pretty cool. They put a lot of thought into their names.
Reply:It's fine if it is a middle name like that (since no one would really know) but I do find it a little annoying when siblings are all named after a similar type of thing (birds, flowers, months, seasons, emotions etc)





But really to each his own! I suppose as long as the parents are happy with their decisions and the children won't be picked on for their entire lives anything is fine!
Reply:I think it's cute. Alliteration is cute too, as long as you're not choosing any random name just to stick with the theme. It has to be great names that you really like. But yes, I think it's special to do some kind of theme.
Reply:Sometimes it's cool. I knew sisters named Sunny and Rainy. Names starting with J seems to be a common one.
Reply:It is fine by me. What I have a problem with is parents giving their children made up names or names of places or names that are so hard to pronounce that they make you feel stupid because you need it repeated.





I think it is personal choice and my opinion should only affect my children's names.
Reply:I'm not a huge fan of themed names.
Reply:I think they have done it quite nicely, it could have been a lot worse.
Reply:themes can be cute if they dont get too themey like all the middle names going together is fine but the whole first name thing is a bit much
Reply:It's annoying. Especially with first letters.
Reply:if its the first name its cheesy, but i think its cute when its the middle name.
Reply:no, I think it's cute, as long as it's not overboard.
Reply:I think its cute with some kids to have similar or themed names...I'd never do it though. I am more into giving kids their own unique name, in hopes that they will grow up to have their own unique personality.
Reply:Honestly, l think it's weird and sort of annoying, sorry!
Reply:its wierd,they should be unique
Reply:I think it is awesome to theme your childrens names.
Reply:I don't really like it.
Reply:I like traditional names, "strong names" versus the cutsie stuff personally, but the themed names probably mean something to the family coming up with them.
Reply:it doesnt bug me.
