After reading the Q name family fiasco I decided to add on here a W family that I think did a very good job really. They have 4 kids, 3 boys and one girl and all their names begin with W's

From age order:

William
Weslea (pronounced Wesley, the little girl)
Wyatt
Weston

Not a big fan of W names myself but these sound good. WDYT?

I like all of them except for Weslea. I think it's a masculine name and it's spelled strange.

However, I LOVE Wesley on a boy.

If Wyatt was renamed Wesley and Weslea was named Willa or Willow, I would totally, 100% agree with you. The names aren't awful, but Wyatt is too hipster/cowboy (a strange combo) for me and Wesley, regardless of spelling, should never be used on a girl.

Is she nicknamed Lea by any chance?

Not bad at all. I like William a lot, Weston and Wyatt are good just not my personal taste, but I think of Wesley as a boy's name and prefer it spelled that way, or Westley. I also don't like that Weslea and Weston could both get called Wes for short and that'd be confusing.

They couldn't give Weslea a feminine name that starts with W? Winifred, Wilhelmina, Willa, Wendy, Whitney, Willow, Wren... I love the name Wesley, but on guys where it should stay.

A good sibset nonetheless. :)

idk if i'd actually ever name my daughter Weslea/Wesley, but i kinda like it on a girl.
Wesley, now, i love love love on a boy, it's on my list.
the other names are nice, but i'm tired of William (i kno too many, i think, lol)
