I wish I could come up with a good term for the style that BtN trends towards. Elegant hipster?
~modern classic~
with shades of hipster
like if you just picked a few and told me they were a sibset in any decade i probably wouldn't be completely surprised, but there are a few oddballs.
"Hey I was researching my family tree and I found a sibset of Gabriel, Theodore, and Rose in the early 1900s!" (all #7 in 2009)
(Rose is the mother, but still. This is 1940).

Oh and this
For fun, this is the progression of the top 5 of 2013 so you can see how they've moved. This shows the top 40.
(eta: don't know why Thomas is highlighted in 2008; ignore that)
