HelpInteresting 6 kid family
Stumbled across this sibset on Instagram and thought they made for a different set.
Clark Wallace
Augustus Lee "Auggie"
Otis Henry
Moses Walden
Artemis Marie
Persephone Tempest
The oldest is 10 and the youngest is a month old.
WDYT? I really like Otis Henry, Moses & Persephone. I like Auggie as a nn but prefer August for the full name. And I like that the names are all equally interesting (fns that is, Lee and Marie are definitely lackluster middles!)

Yikes.
Not names I would ever dream of loving. But totally gutsy and creative family!

I think they are great.
None are common, yet they are all recognizable. The girls' names seem to have a bit more spunk than the rest.
Clark is a HUGE fav of mine and I am glad people are still using it. Wallace is an interesting pairing, though I think Wallace Clark would have flowed better. Plus, as a big 'Leave it to Beaver' fan, the nickname Wally makes me smile.
Auggie is such a cute nickname. Since I imagine he will go by August or Augustus as an adult, I think it works well for the young. I prefer it to Gus anyway.
Otis Henry is adorable, but probably the most expected combo of the group. It's almost textbook hipster... but I still like it.
Moses! I like to see this in use and Walden is an unexpected pairing. I wonder if the middles are after authors or books?
Artemis Marie? Crazy great. I mean, it seriously is. Marie doesn't even read as filler here. I wonder what they call her? In any case, it's cute and fits right in but has an edge on her brothers.
Persephone Tempest is pretty gutsy, but I am not a huge fan of Persephone. Mostly because of the history and the dark meaning of the name. The murderous first added to the stormy middle name makes this a pretty passionate combo, but a bit too violent for me. I would have preferred a differnt, gutsy, name in the first slot (Phaedra Tempest, Seraphina Tempest, Sapphire Tempest, Eudora Tempest, or Parthenope Tempest, etc).

I like them, but they almost seem like two different sets of kids. The boys' names are old fashioned, 19th century type names while the girls have Greek mythology names. They're nice individually, but together they're kind of jarring.

Otis Henry reminds me of the writer O. Henry. I love Augustus nn Auggie. Persephone is okay, and I hate Artemis. I like Marie, but it sounds awful with Artemis. Tempest is just strange, and Clark and Wallace are surnames. I get using one surname-turned-first name, but two in the same name makes it sound like a law firm.
