Help[Opinions] Re: Names don't need to "match" their siblings.
in reply to a message by abbasdaughter
Yes, I agree.
But parents usually stick with similar naming styles when choosing names for subsequent children. Grace and Taylor are both refined so I was expecting something along the lines of Ethan, Andrew, Samuel, etc. Isaiah is not a name I would group into the same category as the other two but that's just me. Tim and Elisabeth are allowed to name their son whatever they please.
To add to that, I know a family with three boys: William, Daniel, and James. All names, too me, are considered classics. About four years ago, the family welcomed their last child and first daughter. Based on the previous names they had chosen, I expected something along the lines of Elizabeth, Isabel, or Catherine. Instead, they chose Adisyn (this spelling). For me, it sticks out among her brothers' names.
As you can see, William, Daniel, and James are all classics but each is different and unique to that child. It's not as if they were named Hayden, Aidan, and Caden.
