[Opinions] Stickman Quintuplets

I'm not sure why I haven't heard of this family before and they haven't been written about here on BtN. Anyway, Scott and Shanna Stickman of PA welcomed five babies on April 5th of this year:

Haley Jane
Alex Myron
Ryan Jacob
Amy Elizabeth
Sarah Mae

I don't know the birth order of the babies and I'm guessing at the spelling of the mns, but I think the set is nice enough. I'd say Sarah Mae is my fave here although it's not usually my style. Oh, btw, Shanna was told by docs at the age of 14 that she would never become pregnant so she and Scott saved their money to try for one IVF procedure shortly after they were married and it took!

I like Jane, Alex as a nn for Alexander, Elizabeth and May rather than Mae. But none of the names would stand out in a crowd, which is refreshing.

If I had quintuplets, I'd keep very quiet about it for as long as I could - it would be dreadful to have the whole planet aware that there were five and then (as can easily happen with the premature and the tiny) have to cope with a really public fatality.

Haley Jane - like Haley, but much prefer sp. Hayley; Jane isn't my style

Alex Myron - don't care for Alex, especially on its own (Alexander is nice); Myron is very dated imo

Ryan Jacob - really like Ryan & love Jacob; would prefer Jacob Ryan

Amy Elizabeth - like Amy & really love Elizabeth (prefer sp. Elisabeth); would prefer Elisabeth Amy

Sarah Mae - like Sarah (prefer sp. Sara); Mae isn't anything I'd use, but not bad

So boring. I prefer this over being ridiculously outlandish, though, if I have to choose between two extremes.

If I could rearrange any of them to create a name I like more I'd go with Jane Elizabeth. Jane isn't used nearly enough as a first name, IMO. It's so stately and dignified.

Amy Elizabeth and Sarah Mae are so sweet and I love the names Jane and Jacob too. Ryan and Haley are ok, but a bit boring and trendy and Alex Myron is not my thing.

I don't like Haley or Ryan, but it's nice to see high-order multiples whose names aren't kree8iv or part of some dorky theme.

Amy Elizabeth is my favorite of the bunch.

Not sure why but they all seem quite dated, especially Haley, Ryan and Amy. I don't likt the fact that two of them begin with the same letter. I do like Jane, Alex (prefer as a nn for Alexander), Jacob, Elizabeth and Sarah, though.

Totally agreed. This set has an 80s-90s feel for sure (especially Haley, Ryan and Amy). I think I was just so pleased by the ordinariness of it all. If I could mix-and-match one combo for each gender, I'd go with Elizabeth Jane and Alexander Jacob. :-)

Elizabeth Jane and Alexander Jacob would be great :)

Haley Jane is alright, though I much prefer Hayley Jane. I like Amy Elizabeth. The rest are not my style at all.

the names are all horrible bland in my opinion, but I'm happy to see they're all decent names. Ryan Jacob is my fav of these and Amy Elizabeth my least fav.
