Oh, she's a creative lady. (my renames :])Not. Makai twice, plus Kai, repeating middle names, giving one child no middle name at all, matchy multiples. !Grr! If you're going to have that many kids, at least give them good names!
Renaming them, I'll keep her "themes"Noah Honor
Jonas Clement
Jeremiel Sincere
Josiah Eternal
Isaiah Truth
Mekai Wisdom [Or Micaiah Wisdom, but I figure the -iah's need a break. I like Mekai / Mekhi enough.
Miriam Amity
Naamah Ever Elijah Malachi
Amelia Jasmine
Jacob Joshua
Aaron Kenaniah
Charis Arielle
Caleb Makaio Yes?

While the first names could have been much, much worse, I find the name Angel to be one of the most low-class names in existence, along the same lines as Crystal. That ruined it for me.

I wonder if Makai will grow up to feel special or "special."

I wouldn'tNot if my oldest brother had my FN as his middle name. :[

For as loopy as the woman sounds for wanting so many kids, at least their decent names. I love:Jeremiah
Isaiah
Angel (on a boy)The rest of the kids are:Elijah
Joshua Jacob (nn J.J.) (B) - 5
Caleb Kai (B) - love both names, but not the combo

Noah, Jonah, Jeremiah, Josiah and Isaiah, I can stand. Makai, Maliyah, Nariyah and Angel are pretty bad, though. But I guess they had so many kids that they just reached a point where they stopped caring about their names.

So apparently she likes KaiBecause she used it three times! (Makai, Elijah Makai, and Caleb Kai). I only like Noah, Jonah, and Elijah. The rest are just not my style or horrible (Nariyah is just blech, I prefer Mariah or Moriah). And I dislike the same MN thing she has going, on twins it's not so horrible but on 8 babies it's an overload. She could have gone with virtue names or names with the same meaning.

And Angel....!

Urgh, the individual names aren't so bad, but all the -ah endings are so cheesy... not to mention giving them all the same middle name.

Also --- ?"She said shared middle names among siblings are not uncommon."It's a kind of tie to show that they all came from the same family," Moss said. "
THEY HAVE SURNAMES FOR THAT!

Cousins and other extended family members can have the same surname. I think the shared middle name thing signifies children of the same immediate family and generation. It's not uncommon in some cultures. Not that I approve of Angel Angel Angel Angel Angel Angel Angel Angel, but the concept shouldn't boggle the mind.

Noah Angel (B)- Noah's not bad. Bit bland
Jonah Angel (B) - aw, I love Jonah
Jeremiah Angel (B) - I much prefer Jeremy... Jeremiah sounds stuck up
Josiah Angel (B) - same as Jeremiah.
Isaiah Angel (B) - Omg... give it a rest with the 'iah's!
Makai Angel (B) - yuck
Maliyah Angel (G) - eew
Nariyah Angel (G) - oh why do they all sound the same??The rest of the kids are:Elijah Makai (B) - 7 - Elijah is nice. Makai is not, and it's weird that they've got another kid now with the fn Makai. Like there aren't enough names out there?
Amerah Yasmeen (G) - 6 - I don't really like names ending in 'ah' and this lacks... something. Hate Yasmeen
Joshua Jacob (nn J.J.) (B) - 5 - it's ok. Bit boring, and not my favourites
Aiden (B) - 4 - ok, bit sick of it now
Calyssa Arielle (G) - 2 - Arielle is nice
Caleb Kai (B) - 2 - This is my favourite. I like Caleb. I don't really like Kai though

Well, I like some and hate some, so it could have been worse.I like Angel for a boy, but hate it that all 8 of them have the same middle name. It's like she couldn't be bothered to make 8 individual combos.I like:Noah Angel (B)
Jonah Angel (B)
Josiah Angel (B)
Isaiah Angel (B)Elijah
Yasmin
Aiden
Oh, and I take back what I said about liking Malia and Naria, I hate this spelling. And while Makai doesn't fit with the others it's better tham McCai, but she already used it for one of the older kids so this poor kid doesn't have even one name that isn't shared with his siblings:-(

Noah, Jonah, Jermiah, Josiah and Isaiah are nice enough. Josiah and Isaiah are a but matchy matchy though.Maliyah - Would prefer Malia, or Amelia.
Nariyah - The spelling of these two feels a bit contrived. I would prefer Neriah.Makai - Don't like. And the poor boy is the only one that doesn't have a h. I would prefer Micah.
