My 18 Children

[pegasus2o5.livejournal.com]

In a discussion about the Duggars, someone challenged the community in general to come up with good names for 18 kids. So I decided to do that! I used an online "coin-flipper" to decide on the boy-girl order and tried to come up with each name individually, as if, although I planned to have a big family, I was never sure exactly which child would be the last. (Incidentally, there is no way in heck I'm having 18 kids. I'm thinking 4, 5 tops.) I didn't try to match up particularly well with my last name because they would have my husband's last name and he doesn't exist yet!

1. Alice Isabella
2. Evan Joseph
3. Gabriel Jonathan
4. Tobias Jordan
5. Jonah Luke
6. Simon Alexander
7. Lily Claire
8. Miriam Rose
9. Nathan Dominic
10. Owen David
11. Callista Serenity (this is my sci-fi baby. If I'm having 18 kids, I am using my guilty pleasure names!)
12. Levi Justin
13. Charlotte Eve
14. Elinor Juliet
15. Hannah Beth
16. Violet Annabelle
17. Naomi Evelyn
18. Jasper Gavin

WDYT?

Bonus points to whoever can spot 4 sci-fi characters and 3 Twilight characters... though I promise you, they were not all on purpose...

1. Judah Benjamin
2. Zimri Matthew
3. Mathilde Jane
4. Alice Kate
5. Henry Zev
6. Isaac Finch

10. Ethan Atticus
11. Jasper Nicholas
12. Cecilia Beatrix
13. Imogen June
14. Quentin Rory
15. Eva Miriam

And expected number 19. Boaz Sebastian or Olive Zooey

I used a coin flip to determine order as well! My sibset would be Judah, Zimri, Mathilde, Alice, Henry, Isaac, Etta, Ulysses, Oona, Ethan, Jasper, Cecilia, Imogen, Quentin, Eva, Elliott, Lucia, Ezra and Boaz/Olive.

Wow, it sort of blows my mind to see Alice and Henry next to Zimri, Oona, and Boaz... Different strokes for different folks, I guess!
