Triplets
What sort of theme would you use for naming triplets? Same initials? Similar meanings?
For two girls and one boy, I considered having names that end with et/ett, to rhyme with the word triplet. So right now i'm thinking: Scarlett Anne, Violet Belle and Everett Arthur (the middle names are homages to family members).
What do you think? What would you name your triplets?

GGG: Caroline Rose, Gabrielle Jade, & Jacqueline Grace (feminine forms of masculine names / monosyllabic "filler" names)
GGB: Juniper Claire, Hazel Marie, & Rowan Thomas (plant names / names of saints [and coincidentally, family names! lol])
GBB: Charlotte Jessica, Caleb Joshua, & Connor Julian (same initials)
BBB: Logan Samuel, Mason Gabriel, & Jackson Adriel (place names / names ending in -el)This was fun!

I probably wouldn't do an intentional pattern, especially for firsts, since they already share being triplets, and I'd just use names I wanted to anyway. If I had to do a similar theme I'd probably go for meaning, origin, or number of letters; something that wouldn't be too similar in sound. I think your choices go nicely together.Themed:Pandora Ziva Marigold
Artemis Yelena Saffron
Evander Lucian Hemlock Greek mythology // Names meaning light or bright // Florals or plants.

In reality I think there would definitely be more repeats

Hmmm... Shakespearean. So I'll go with Lysander Cassius, Rosalind Helena, and Ophelia Beatrice.

I like your choices. Very pretty. I think I’d go with either classic theme or an Ancient Rome theme.

I would be careful about giving names that sound too similar as people tend to mix up siblings.I like all of your names, but not necessarily together. Everett Arthur is really cute.Other combos:
Darcy Anne, Everett Arthur, Fiona Belle
Everett Arthur, Hazel Anne, Julia Belle
themed:
Iris Margot, Juniper Claire, and River Maxwell
Beatrice Rose, Juliet Anne, and Sebastian Ross
Good Luck!
Ruby Anne, Opal Jane, and Jasper John

What would you name your triplets?
Elodia, Lilia and Matias - just the names I like now.With honouring middle names:
Elodia Natalie, Lilia Nadine and Matias Nathan.But if I do need some common theme:
Vita, Mira and Emil - four-letter names.
Everild (Eve), Melissa (Mel) and Leo - same theme: animals.P.S. I actually like your combos! Even though I'm not (or wasn't?) a fan of Scarlett.

In the last triplet thread I went with same initials for fun and because it would be very tempting but in real life I would avoid similar initials or themes because they'll have a hard enough time developing their own personalities and I wouldn't want to delay that.

Definitely not same initials, similar meanings maybe, but same style of namesThose names go ok, I like the honour names. I think rhyming endings is a bit much

I agree. My brother has twins who have the same initials but reversed. A... R.... and R.... A.... It links them but not so overtly
