HelpNow, That's a Sibset
Came across this one. Not really sure what to say...
Hunter Mckynzi H.
Hayden Brooke H.
Howard Hutchenson "Hutch" H.
Huxton Blake H.
If all I saw was first names, I'd assume 4 boys, but I'm pretty sure at least Hunter is female, and possibly Hayden.
Also, if Huxton is called Hux, I think that's too close to Hutch.

Ooo, Huxton is kind of cool. I agree, though, that Hutch and Hux are way too close together.
I hate Hunter and Hayden at all, and doubly so on girls. I can see how Hunter, Haydeen, and Huxton are all names the same parents could like. To me, Howard seems really random in the set.

What sticks out for me is the "Mckynzi". I want to pronounce it"Ma-kine-zee".

When I was a teenager, I babysat regularly for a couple who, when I first started babysitting for them, had two daughters named Kelly and Courtney. While I was babysitting for them, they had a son whom they named Christopher. After I had stopped babysitting for them, I heard that they'd had another daughter and her name was Katie. All I heard was Katie, not sure if that was her full name or what it may have been a nickname for, probably Katherine if it was a nickname.
Once I happened to mention them to my husband and he said, "Why do people do that? Give all their kids names that start with the same letter?" Okay, in this case, it's two different letters, C and K, but they have the same sound. Which is basically what he meant. And I said probably because they just happen to like names that start with that sound, for instance, I tend to like girls' names that start with a V. Going strictly on liking names, I could have a Victoria, a Verity, a Vanessa, and a Veronica. I like all of those names enough to use them.
But I do think that I would stop myself from doing that because it would seem cutesy and themey and sort of obnoxious.
So I think it's obvious that these parents have a natural preference for names that start with an H (which I don't really understand because it's my least favorite letter for a name to start with, though there are a few exceptions), but they should have stopped themselves. As should have the parents of Kelly, Courtney, Christopher, and Katie.

My friend Allyson is married to a guy named Austin. Their daughter is Amelia, and they are expecting another baby girl whom they've named April.
They are a family of A's.

I'm part of a sibset like that, we're three siblings and all share the same initials (yes, middle too). It was just a coincidence with my two older siblings, and my parents hadn't really thought about it and would probably have named me something else, if my siblings hadn't pointed it out and insisted they couldn't break the pattern.

Haha, my cousin's kids did the same thing! She had Colton, and then Caleb, both named just cause she liked those names, and when she found herself pregnant with her third boy, the first two insisted his name start with 'C' too cause "it just makes sense!" lmao She ended up going with Camden (which funnily enough is the name of another cousin, though one she doesn't really know).
