They weren't actually quadruplets at all. They were two sets of twins: Lenore & Lorraine Gilmartin and Helen & Doris Gilmartin (this link doesn't say if they were related: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Gale). Only heaven knows why they those those stage names!

Because it was cutesy and catchy more stage-y than their real names. I mean, here we are, still talking about them, lol.

Lenore and Lorraine must have grown up with a taste for tongue-twisters.

And I imagine they chose those stage names in the hope that, many years later, people would still be staring at them and marvelling.
