Their naming style is okay. I like some names, but not others, and the names are not terrible. I'm assuming some of these are simply nicknames they use for anything other than something official (eg Tommy rather than Thomas)Names I like the most;Maggie (not keen on Margaret or Margo, though)
Finley
Charlie (not keen on Charles, though)
Tommy (I like Thomas)
Zach (I like Zackary / Zachary)Names I like the least;Tucker
Wesley
Gabe (though Gabriel is okay)
Francisco
Vinny (not keen on Vincent either)Congratulations to them but holy crap, 15 kids

After fourteen boys, they came up with Maggie Jayne. Oh dear, what a wasted opportunity. What would have been so wrong about Margaret Jane?I like Thomas, nn Tom, and Charlie is OK, presumably as a nn for Charles, or maybe not. I'd have used Francis rather than Francisco and Brendan rather than Brandon.

Wow. They must feel like a miracle has occurred, haha.I kinda like many of the names. I'd hope some are nicknames but it doesn't look like that's the case?
The only one I truly dislike is Tucker.
Maggie is great.

Did this person just decide to keep having babies until one was a girl? I like Brandon (with the nn Bran), Wesley, Luke, Francisco, and maybe Finley. Maggie is cute as a nn.Francisco is so nice and so weird to see in this sibset full of short, curt, not-pretty nicknamey names. (I'm not gonna say they're ugly-- except Tucker and Drew-- but Francisco is the only one that's actually pretty. And most of them are... uh... homely, I guess?)
(and if I had to name the same set: Peregrine, Gawain, Alder, Brennan, Taliesin, Corin, Ronan, Kieran, Lucas, Sylvan, Merlin, Kai, Nico, Emrys, & Olwen)

I'm not a fan of their naming style, I only like a few of the boys' names and I don't like Maggie at all. That's a lot of big brothers to have!
