Things To Keep In Mind While Naming Triplets:

We’ve also jotted down a few tips and suggestion to ease the baby naming confusions.

1. Opt for totally different names:

You’re under no obligation to select names of any particular type or idea. If you want, you can select entirely different names for your triplets, especially if you feel your children will be compared their whole lives, since they are triplets. So the least you can do is picking different names.

2. Which name to pick for which baby?

This one is one of the best first questions parents ask themselves and each other after zeroing on the baby names. We’d suggest let the birth and alphabetical order decide the names. For instance, baby one becomes Alexander, baby two becomes Briana, and baby three becomes Cecily. Or the first born becomes Ethan, the second born becomes Nathaniel, and the third born becomes Rayan.

3. Honor your family:

Take out your family photo album or go through the family tree to pick some beautiful, vintage baby names for your child. It’s an excellent way to honor the members of your family. But it also comes with a repercussion, i.e., favoritism. Yes, there are high possibilities that the friend or relative would show preference of one child over the others.

4. Pick names that have the same level of popularity:

You wouldn’t want one child to have a super common name like Samantha for one and exotic and creative names for others Zinirah or Kian. This would even lead to a lot of questions from your child in the future.

5. Practice the names:

Try out the names before getting them printed on the birth certificates. Remember, you will call out the names uncountable times in the future, yell when angry, and whisper when they’re asleep. So practice it on your friends or other family members and see how they sound. Speak out the names and see if they flow well into one another or not.

A Few General Advices:

• Ensure that the rhythm of the first names complements the last names. Call out the first and middle with last names several times to check the swing.

• Try to avoid letter redundancy between the names.

• Make sure the number of syllables in the first name does not clash with the number of syllables in the last name. Also, see that the first name does not end with a syllable that rhymes with the first syllable of the last name.

• Avoid first and last names with the same letters. They often do not sound good together.

• Both first and last names should not end with a vowel.
