Well, my favorite name is Alexander, though I'd never use it because it's been done to death.Favorite sibset is Zachary and Everett.My least favorite name is Tayo. Yes, I think I dislike that more than Madison.My least favorite sibset is Oliver, Kieran, and Jonah. Lately Oliver just makes me think of olives and I despise Jonah.Most surprising name is Janae.Most boring is Alexander. Yes, it's my favorite, but it's also boring because it's so overused.If I were picking a sibset of three, it would be Grace, Owen, and Natalie.
