[Opinions] Identical Triplets names
Saw this online. I don't like the names that much, but it was nice how much information they gave about the names (copied and pasted from article): Abby, Brindabella (Brin, for short), and Laurel Hepner were born at Sutter Memorial Hospital in Sacramento to parents Hannah and Tom on November 22. The girls are all named after family members or special places in the lives of their parents. Brindabella is named after a mountain range in Australia located near where Tom Hepner grew up.

Poor little Brindabella! My father grew up near a mountain range in South Africa called the Hottentots-Holland Mountains, so perhaps I had a narrow escape - except that he'd have had more sense.You know what's really weird? Abby. Laurel is nms but at least it has a healthy outdoor vibe to complement the B name. But Abby is so middle-of-the-road suburban!

Eh, they aren't the worst triplet names I have ever heard and kudos to them that they didn't make them themey. However, I don't really like it either.
I really dislike Brindabella. Laurel is okay, though not my style. And why didn't they go with Abigail? It feels like they chose a baby name instead of a name.

Abby and Laurel are nice, but Brindabella? She really drew the short straw in the name stakes didn't she?! Why couldn't they just have named her Brin for Bella instead?

BRINDABELLA?!?!?!?!

Wow, super random! Abby as a full name is silly. Brindabella sounds completely ridiculous, regardless of associations. Laurel is okay.

Brindabella sounds like a CATS character. I love CATS, but the name is horrible. Glad they didn't choose Kata Tjuta, though. ;)

ewwI've been to the Brindabella's, they aren't that great!! lol.All three names are completly random and I wonder if they picked them out of a hat?

I like that the names are random, but I agree with you on the mountain thing. People here tend to give their kids the name McKinley or Denali after the mountain. Who wants to be named after a mountain? I just think of the terrible jokes if he/she turns out fat or big or tall or busty. No, just no.

Abby needs a full name. Abby by itself is ew.Brindabella is a hobbit name. Brindabella Baggins is totally a resident of the Shire.And Laurel is just okay, but I'm not jumping up and down about it.These names go together terribly.

Abby is ugly. Why not Abigail? Though, that might devolve into Abby. Yuck.Laurel is a name I used to loathe but now I'm kinda meh on it.Brindabella is so horrible. It sounds like the main character of a fan fiction written by a 15-year-old who is convinced her story is The Best Ever.

Abby and Laurel are okay, but mountain range or not, Brindabella is gross.

LOL, I kind of agree! It makes me think of a fairy tale's evil witch.
