Triplet set

[ex-lacanian.livejournal.com]

Okay, so I'm expecting triplets in January. I'm assuming they're all girls, and I've picked my three favorite names (right now, this could change again in a few months.

Lucy (Possibly Lucille? Thoughts?)
Nora
Meryl

The only thing is that I realized that makes them "L, M, N" which might be too match-y or cutesy, IDK.

So, thoughts on these first names for a set of triplets? (Or individually?)

ALSO, I need help with middle names. I want one of the middle names to be Suzanne, but I'm not sure with which one it goes best with. Middle names suggestions for all 3 would be amazing.

TIA!

I think they're adorable! Although I do prefer Norah with an H and Meryl, although lovely, is a little tougher than the other two-- she could be the odd one out with the more unusual name, but she could just as easily be the really spunky or feminine one.. so probably not a big deal, lol. Lucille is nice, but gives the set too much of an old fogey vibe.

The first two are names I've actually considered.. middle names depend on your tastes

Lucy Eleanor/Elena
Norah Jane/Renee
Meryl Lenore/Helena

Some might not go together, but there's some ideas..
Perhaps family names for middle names? Or you could try being a little themey for middle names.. use plant/flower/herb names or something (I'd mix it up with plants and flowers, not just flowers). Perhaps give them all middle names that have the same number of syllables so the names have the same a cadence. Lol, I'm not usually in to matchy matchy, these name just seems to invite it a little. The three are definitely all o the same genre, IMO.


Ohh.. I'd love to have triplets! Hope all goes well for you.

Given that many people use Nora as a nickname for Eleanor (arguably most common origin of the name), wouldn't that make Lucy Eleanor and her sister Norah a bit... funky? Unless you turned it into a self-referential triplet Thang, like so:

Lucy Eleanor
Nora[h] Mary
Meryl Lucille

Not to my taste, but I'm sure it's somebody's cup of tea!
