10 kids in 10 years

Family on Instagram with 9 boys and 1 girl. All quite generic names, none of which I’m really a fan of, however it is so refreshing to see a large family in which the names of the younger kids don’t end up being completely ridiculous and creative.

Steven
Christopher
William
Ryan
Spencer
Max
Thomas
Henry
Lily
Peter

I absolutely love most of these, the only ones that rank lower are William, Ryan, and Max but that's not to say dislike so much like less, but they are still solid and usable. These are so refreshing for a modern family.

Hi!

10 Kids in 10 years is not normal! Are they fundamentalists? Poor mom, poor body, poor mind. 10 kids in... 25 years would be easier for her.

Anyway...the names:

Steven 😐 boring
Christopher 😐 boring
William 😀 I like it.
Ryan 😍 love this one
Spencer 😍 love this as unisex.
Max 😀 ok, maybe too short.
Thomas 😐 boring
Henry 😐 boring
Lily 😍 love this one since I was a child.
Peter 😀 ok but kinda boring.

Yes I was thinking that myself lol. I do suspect there’s some twins in there (can’t remember which names of of the twins) but yeah still pretty crazy.

I don't like Spencer at all.
Ryan and Steven seem boring/dated where I live.

The others go pretty well together.

The names are all fairly basic, but they still seem mismatched to me.

I'd group the boys into these groups, in this order (B is stylistically between A and C):

A: Christopher, William, Peter
B: Henry, Thomas, Spencer
C: Ryan, Max, Steven

And I think Lily would fit best with group A.

Steven - It's alright but boring. I like Stephen too.

Christopher, William, Henry, Ryan, Spencer - It' alright but boring.

Max - It's alright for nickname for Maxwell or Maximilian.

Thomas, Peter - Cool and timeless.

Lily - It's so cute and pretty but boring. I like Lillian more.

Most of these names are OK. I don't like Max on its own, though.

Although simple, most of these names are classic and will serve the children well into adulthood. I like most of them. Spencer feels out of place to me, I'd replace that with Samuel. My favourite is probably Christopher.

I was going to comment myself that Spencer feels out of place. I agree Samuel is a better fit

I like most of these names myself, mainly William, Ryan, Max (though I'd prefer it if it was short for Maximilian), Thomas and Lily. I don't dislike any of the names. I also think Lily should be short for Lilian

Yes! I like Lillian, too. Lilith is lovely as well.

I think Maxwell would be a great option as a longer form of Max. Maximus might work, too - but I don't know. Maximus seems a little too much amongst the other names.

I love every name here except Lily (it’s extremely common where I am; I don’t mind Lillian, which is the usual long-form), Peter and Henry being my most favorite.

I like all of them except for Ryan and Lily, but they're all timeless classics. Spencer feels a bit mismatched with all of the others though.
