Baby Name Tips for Mom of Octuplets

Should the names be matchy-matchy, or totally unique? A baby names expert gives pointers.

octuplets

For now, the octuplets are known as Baby A-H. But pretty soon these six boys and two girls are gonna need real names. How do you name EIGHT BABIES? Babynames.com founder Jennifer Moss offers Mom some words of wisdom.

"Their names should be different!" Moss says. "They are all individuals, and should be treated like any other siblings."

So giving them all "J" names like the Duggars is NOT a good idea? "Think about it -- they are going to share schools, clothes, birthdays," Moss continues. "Why should they have to share similar-sounding names, too?"

What would you name the octuplets?

Since these babies are miracle Gifts from God, how about a list of biblical names with a (nickname) following, if it works:

BOYS:
Isaac Mathew;
Caleb Joseph (CJ);
Elijah Benjamin (Eli);
Lucas Kai (Luke);
Noah Alexander;
Samuel Devon (Sam/Sammy); GIRLS: Kylah Elizabeth; Zoe/Zoey Alexis.

Thou These children are beautiful gifts from God,but we are no longer in ancient time, so i suggest they should be given mordern names with nice meanings like thelight,favour.miracle,goodness.etc
