Re: 18th Century Siblings
Probably one girl would be named after the mother, also. This was very commonly done in the eighteenth century---the oldest daughter was given the mother's name. If the OP is really going for verisimilitude, that would be the way to go--have the oldest daughter have the mother's name, with some sort of differentiating nickname.
