Re: Names for siblings
in reply to a message by Jacqui
There are a lot of A-names there: Aidan, Anders, Alyssa. Could get confusing with initials.
Aidan - I love this name, but I'm annoyed it's so popular now. It is, however, my (much) preferred spelling out of Aidan, Aden, Aiden, Adyn, Ayden, etc.
Ronan - kind of love this name, though it makes me think of Ronan the Accuser from 'Guardians of the Galaxy'.
Emily, Sophie, Alyssa, and Kaitlyn / Kaitlin feel very "normal" next to Ronan and Anders. Sort of like the whole Aerith and Bob trope. Declan feels like it's in its own little "quirky" category.
Kaitlyn vs Kaitlin: I prefer Kaitlyn, but only by a little; Kaitlin is fine too. What about Caitlyn as as spelling?

Glad to know you found my feedback helpful. :)
Caitlyn is probably my favoured spelling, but I think the "original" spelling in this case is Caitlín? Which could be really difficult to actually use, given the accented spelling. I've spent my whole life spelling both my first and last names for people, but I imagine it would be extra awkward having to explain the accent. But anyway, I do like both Kaitlyn and Kaitlin. :)
