What Name Theme Would You Choose?

What Name Theme Would You Choose?

Okay, we know you might not really choose to theme all your children’s names.

But if you had to choose a name theme, which one would you choose?

Would you give all your children names that start with the same letter, like one friend of ours, who gave all four of her children names that start with Z?

Or maybe you’d cultivate a family of sisters who all charmingly have flower names: Azalea, Magnolia, Lotus.  Or perhaps you’d pick color names as your theme, or Irish names, or mythological names, or royal names, or circus-themed names — Barnum, Bailey, and Ring?

For fun, or maybe for reals, tell us which family theme name you’d pick, and which names in that theme you’d be most likely to use!
