Ever since one of my friends announced she was expecting three baby girls I have been trying to help her come up with some sets of names.
Wdyt of these ?Constance, Carmella, Cadence

Amethyst, Adora, Arcadia Evangeline, Francesca, Gabriella

Niamh, Molly, Joanna Rhiannon, Remei, Rosemary Tallulah, Kezia, Beatrix

Thanks

I like Constance and Carmella but not Cadence. I'd prefer to see something like Corinne instead.I like Evangeline, Francesca, and Gabriella. The names just seem to go together, and it's neat that they don't all start with the same letter but are still connected since they're alphabetical (EFG).I think Beatrix goes better with Molly and Joanna.

They are all nice. I think Evangeline, Francesca, and Rosalind is slightly more interesting while still matching.

All of these begin with the same letter, so that's a no from me, even if I did like the names:
Constance, Carmella, Cadence
Amethyst, Adora, Arcadia
Rhiannon, Remei, RosemaryEvangeline, Francesca, Gabriella: I hate Evangeline and Gabriella, but I like Francesca. The EFG initials are getting dangerously close to being themey.Niamh, Molly, Joanna: All the names are nice, this comes a close second to the next set...Tallulah, Kezia, Beatrix: Love it! I say Kezia as KEZ-ee-a though, and I don't like it half as much said ke-ZIE-a.

I don't care for the all C, A, or R sets. Maybe mix them up a bit to get Adora, Constance, & Rosemary--that would be lovely. :) The EFG one is only slightly cutesy and the names match each other in style nicely. The NMJ set is cute, but I adore the TKB set--gorgeous names, similar in style, not cutesy or too similar to each other in sound, etc.

Hmm... I don't really like any of them all together, but I do like Niamh, Rosemary, and Beatrix as single names.

I don't think triplets should all have names beginning with the same letter. It just looks silly to me and as though the parents have deliberately chosen those names, not because they like them, but because they begin with the same letter. Although these names aren't my style, I think the E, F, G thing is ok (you know Evangeline, Francesca and Gabriella. [I like Evangeline but dislike the other two]) and I don't think it looks totally intentional. I think that your friend should just pick out names that she really likes.My favourite sibset from the ones you've chosen are Niamh, Molly and Joanna. I think its cute to have subtle themes in sibsets eg. giving twin girls flower-themed middle names eg. Violet and Heather, Lily and Rose or you could use colour-themed names instead eg. Siena and Xanthe or whatever. If I had to choose names for triplets right now it would be:Zahra Soleil
Eve Zephyra
Naomi Rain
I've chosen three names I love as first names and three middle names I also love (all weather-related in some way to show what I mean about cute themes).

I like what you said. my friend has triplets and she named them A, B, and C you know how they label the badies while there still in her baby A's name is Avery. Baby B's name is Blake, and baby C is nameed Cassy. I like it alot.

I work in a NICU so I've seen several sets of triplets. Quite a few have had names that start with the same initial, but most do not. I think I've only seen an A,B,C named set once, but I'd rather see that than all their names starting with the same letter, personally. And for us nurses, when we are referring to them constantly as Baby A, B, or C, it would help us remember their names. LOL. Overall, though, and since they'll have the names for the rest of their lives, I'd rather see them have non-cutesy/matchy names. :)

I am also opposed to them starting with the same initial.
