From another paper that I read ... thankfully not where I actually live, I think I'd have to move, based on some of these! This paper doesn't list siblings, unfortunately :(

Nikki Lea
Noah Michael
Madison Robin Anne
Magnus Alexander
Chloe Veronica
Hudson Kendrick David
Travis Edward Timothy
Torrie Anne
Ashton Michael Denis
Noah Matthew
Griffin Nate
Michael Anthony
Caleb Daniel
Aidan Willis
Trinity Leahla Hope
Calvin Andrew
Ethan Daniel Emmett
McKenna Rayella Alexandra
Tanner Charles
Noelle Anne Gweneth
Ronan Walter Blaine
Tessa Tina Sam
Marra Jade (isn't this a Star Wars name? Albeit misspelled...)

I suppose most of these are pretty harmless, but some of the combinations they came up with are really odd, especially Tessa Tina Sam. My favourites by far are Noah and Ethan. I also really like Torrie and Nikki, but as nicknames, not given names. Trinity is kind of a guilty pleasure name for me, but that combination is a bit much.

Calvin, Caleb, Griffin, Travis, Hudson, Chloe, etc. are not my style, but there's nothing *wrong* with them. I really dislike Madison and McKenna.

I think that if you can make the three names really work together; put them in the order that sounds the best, and not have it just seem like you threw some names together, it can be okay. In theory, I have no problem with two middle names.

But Tessa Tina Sam. I know another comment had an issue with McKenna Rayella Alexandra, because they were all so long, but to me, Tessa Tina Sam doesn't go together at all. There's no flow to the name whatsoever.

I agree. When it flows well and makes sense (family names or whathaveyou) I think it's nice. But sometimes it sounds like 3 names they couldn't decide between, and just used them all in some random order.

Yeah, exactly ... Sam being so short makes it not work for me. Tessa Tina on its own might not be so bad.
