Name Themes: Pro or con?

Name Themes: Pro or con?

Question of the Week

Thanks to all you berries who submitted QOW ideas last week—there are definitely some goodies that we will be using!  (And a special nod of thanks to anniebee, who came up with several excellent ones.)

We’ll begin with one inspired by longtime Nameberry loyalist Lola, about name themes:

Did you theme your kids names—by first letter, meaning, style?

If so, would you do it again or do you regret establishing a pattern?

If there’s a theme with your first two kids, are you committed to following it with a third?

There are both blatantly obvious and more subtle motifs–what’s your feeling about the practice in general?

And of course the door is still open for more QOW ideas.
