I saw on Oprah today the first surviving African-American sextuplets. I wasn't keen on the names together, mainly because of the matching initial. Their names are:
Kalynne 
Kiera
Kobe
Kaleb
Kieran
Kyle


They have an older brother named Dewayne. Their parents are Chris and Diamond

I don't dislike Kiera or Kobe. I like Caleb, but not Kaleb. Dewayne is really NMS and Diamond did not seem to suit the mother (I feel it sounds more like a stripper name than a mother name, lol)

WDYT?

GAMETIME: if you had to name sextuplets (2 girls, four boys) what would you choose?

I like Kieran, but that's it. I agree that they are way too matchy. Especially Kiera & Kieran!

Sextuplets:

Is it possible that you know "90210"? Were those their names? Makes it worse.

Their names were Brenda and Brandon.

I was close! All I know about "90210" is that my babysitter wasn't supposed to watch it when we were in the room, and that that Andrea was from the wrong side of the tracks.

I was watching that and all I could think was there would be no way I could name 6 kids in one go, I struggled naming my only son!

But I don't really like any of the names except for Caleb, but spelt like that.

I don't like all the Ks... just, why? What is it about having more than one child that makes some people think it is necessary to match their names?

But I especially think Kiera and Kieran are too close.

Kiera is the only one of those names that I semi-like. Caleb and Kieran are ok too I guess.

I like Keira & Keiran [though prefer Ciara & Kiran]; but not together seeing as they're basically the same name. The others are nmsaa, but not inherently bad.
What is a 'mother name' anyway? I mean mothers are people too.

Mine ...

Wayy too matchy. I think I'd go out of my way to make sure none of them had the same first initial as each other so they would be...

Catherine
Juliet
Oliver
Gabriel
Miles
Samuel

GAMETIME: Arthur, Theodore, George, Edmund, Blythe, and Vivian. If I ever had sextuplets, I would fulfill my love of old-fashioned names. ^_^

I don't like their names, either. They make me think that they lack inspiration. Two of their kids share the same name, one shares a name with an NBA star, one name is made-up, and Kaleb is spelled with a 'K. Plus, the entire same-syllable things irks my nerves.

I like Kieran, but the rest of them are just awful, and I hate them all together.

I would use Daphne Margaret, Sylvia Jane, James Kenneth, Theodore Alan, Dexter Michael, and Felix John.

All my kids are going to be named somewhat after someone .. so I tried to do that with these, which may explain some spellings.

I mean to add....we're not multiples, but me and my sisters all have the same sound (K) for our first names (Kristin, Kelsey, Cara and Claire) and it makes life hell around the house. I NEVER call anyone by the correct name (it doesn't help my mom's name starts with a K too), and if I wasn't the oldest I'd never get called by the right name. Half the time I combine Cara and Claire and call them both Clara. They didn't intentionally do it (Claire was almost Grace) it just kinda happened. Add in 4 cousins and 2 uncles with the "K" sound and family gatherings are a nightmare.

Never do it to your children.

Hmm. I don't like Kieran and Kiera because them seem to much alike.

Ok, 2 girls and 4 boys. My husband and I thought about this:

2 girls:

Clementine Violet
Jenna Belle

4 boys:

Sebastian Pierce
Trevor John
Thatcher Silas
Deacon Nox
