Dad: Gil

Michaella
Erin

Lawson
Nathan

Alyssa
Tori

Trace
Carlin
Josie
Katie

Jackson
Warden
Isaiah

Addallee
Ellie Bridget
Callie-Anna

At least they have a variety of names (even if some of them are weird). WDYT?

Warden is the only one that strikes me as terrible, though many aren't my style.

They also have another baby on the way. I really like Erin, Jackson, Isaiah, & Ellie Bridget.

Yup. They were on an episode of 19 Kids & Counting recently and they mentioned they were having another one.

If I recall correctly, don't they pronounce Michaela like Michael-uh (instead of Mi-KAY-la)? I found that odd, yet kind of delightful.

yeah. I was going to say exactly the same thing. I can't decide whether I love or hate the way they pronounce it.

I am kind of happy about that because there is no way that name spells out Mi-KAY-la.

That is a strange mix. I'm kind of surprised that in all those names, with all that variation, there's Josie, Judson, and Jackson which are all so similar.

Michaella, Carlin, and Addallee rub me the wrong way, the last probably because of all the double characters.
And Trace sounded fine until I found out it was a boy. Another spelling or perhaps as a girls name and I would probably like it.

The only ones I really dislike are Trace and Warden. I like Lawson and Nathan. I think they're both handsome.
