Book related names

[http://users.livejournal.com/_xasphyxiax_/]

One of my favorite book of all times is called 'Flowers in the Attic' and some of you might have read it. I was just wondering what you thought of their sibset and what you think of sibsets starting with the same letter in general.
Their names were:

Christopher
Catherine Leigh, but everyone called her Cathy (on a side note I loooove the spelling of this name with a C not a K)
Carrie (twin)
Cory (twin)

Oh and I was also wondering what you thought of the name Lorraine (nn Ray) and Corrine (also in the book, the mother's name)

Thanks!

haha from what i remember of flowers in the attic, it isn't exactly a sibset i'd want to use as a sibset.

i like carrie and christopher is okay. i'm not a fan of cory and i like catherine better spelled kathryn or katherine.

I'd use it as a sibset if my husband liked the names. I understand why you wouldn't want to name your children Christopher and Catherine though lol... lets just leave it at that.

hahaha, yeah, that just seems a little creepy to me. i mean, if you like the names, use them -- i just personally would never be able to because of that book.

Yeah I understand what you're saying lol. Me, on the other hand, would use them because of that book but I totally get you... most of my friends think the same way. One of my friends was thinking of naming her daughter Catherine and she just couldn't after she read the book so she named her Cathleen... we still call her Cathy though lol.

LOL i could use then separately, but there's just something about using them TOGETHER that would bug me.

lol that was the problem with her, she already had two boys when Cathy was born, the eldest one (who was 7 at the time) was named Christopher and the other one (who was 3 at the time) was named Christian. She had another baby girl a year after Cathy was born and named her Candice. She had a thing for C names because her mother was named Camilla and she died when my friend was young so she wanted to honor her by naming all of her kids with the letter C. Now she is done having kids though... she always tells me "two is too much" and then laughs, she loves her kids but I can see how they might drive her crazy sometimes.
