[Opinions] Re: Michaela, Jedidiah & Hephzibah .... WDYTO the Sibset?
Michaela doesn’t seem to fit, sound wise, but the spelling does.
Jedidiah is okay, but I don’t like the nickname Jed.
Hephzibah, I first thought was a boy name, I think mixing it up with Hezekiah. It could be a guilty pleasure, but is too weird in real life and so is the nickname.
It screams overly religious and I usually am a fan of Biblical names, but these sound a Duggar level family of religious, and I feel like the parents would be very judgmental people.If I could rename them without going too far off the parent’s style: Elizabeth, Jeremiah, and Catherine.

They're actually not judgmental people. Just a solid, everyday Christian family involved in the community and whatnot, trying to raise decent kids and not make waves at all.

...I think Catherine is way far off from Hephzibah...if I was converting it to a 'secular/mainstream' version, I'd go with something more like Ophelia, Daisy, Lyric, or Gladys...Actually, if I rename them all in a 'non-biblical/classic' style... Sophia, Benedict, Marigold.
