Twin BA (spot the odd one out)
Aussie actress Madeleine West (played Flick on Neighbours) had identical twin girls on the 14th, making it 6 kids for her and her partner. They have 5 girls and 1 boy and their names are:Phoenix (girl), 8
Hendrix (boy), 6
Xascha, 4
Xanthe, 2
Xalia & Margot, nbI feel like Margot is really the odd one out in that set! If only they'd gone with Sascha....

I think Margot got the best deal. Xanthe is nice too, just a bit lost in a see of "X"s. It looks like the mum suddenly realised a little too late that there weren't than many X names for girls. She probably thought, "damn, I should have gone with an S theme instead"

Even Margox would have been better. Not that I like it (far prefer Margot) but it feels a bit evil to have five kids whose FN include the letter X, and then exclude the sixth.

You're right. All of them get Xs except for super lucky Margot.

She could have done Margaux and tied it back to the beginning of the sibset.

Ridiculous and strange! Don't care for any of the names really. Phoenix and Hendrix would work for brothers. Btw, she was Dee on Neighbours. That's when I actually used to watched it!

I'm not crazy for any of them and phoenix I much prefer on a boy

Huh, that is a messy mess.
Xascha is kind of ridiculous. Xalia too.
I wonder why they didn't use Margaux. Seems like the obvious choice.
I wonder if they didn't plan on having that many kids are first. Like they named Phoenix and then Hendrix because they liked it and thought it was neat that they kind of matched. Then all they could agree on was Sascha, but they thought it needed to "match". And then they are locked in to a pattern.

They said they only planned on having two-three, so I can see how they might have accidentally gotten stuck in a theme, but I feel like they had the perfect chance to break it with having twins because then they would've had two kids that didn't fit the theme and there was no one odd one out. Or if they really were set on Xalia, then yeah, they should've gone for Margaux. I feel like it should've been either all in or all out, but not this halfway commitment that leaves only 1 kid out of 6 not fitting in.But this- this is just a mess.And it bugs me more than a little to see my beautiful Xanthe stuck between Xascha and Xalia :(

Poor little Xanthe being mistreated like that!

Hm, that is strange that they gave one twin an X name like some of the other kids, but then not the other... I think if you're going to go with a theme you should just go full sail, it may still be silly but not as silly as half sail.

They seem to have suddenly decided they couldn't stand one more x, and couldn't even bring themselves to name the girl Margaux.

Yeah that's what it seems like to me too! I don't know why they didn't take the chance to break the theme by giving both twins non-X names and then there'd be no odd one out.
