The most reasonable explanation I can think of is so that if an older sibling writes their initials on their clothing and then passes it down to a younger sibling, the initials can stay the same.

Although that makes the most sense when the kids are in school and they'll write their initials on their shoes and stuff.

My cousins on one side are named Susan and Steven and my cousins on the other side are Jasmine, Jennifer and Jaclyn.

Wouldn't that just make it extremely difficult to tell who's clothing is who's? I mean, imagine doing the laundry "This belongs to J.D. Oh it's obviously x's"

If you give the wrong clothes to the wrong kid, you're forced to wear the outfit to school the next day, regardless of how it fits. How else are they going to learn?

I know two siblings that start with K and it's pretty much a lifelong game of 'who the gently caress is this mail for?'.

I especially like how the Duggars have two verbally indistinguishable ones in Joanne and Joy-Anne. Just confirms that at some point they straight up forgot which ones they've used already.

kids grow and get bigger dude.

the point of an alliterative naming system is to make hand me downs less shameful

its actually kind of a caring and smart thing to do even if youre making the monstrously lovely parenting decision to have more children than you can provide for.

no, they're Joy-Anna (they usually just call her Joy I think) and Johannah (they usually call her Hannie, what a rebel!!!111!)

so at least in writing and what they're actually called, they're pretty different

The Grimace posted:

yeah it's not cute. one of my childhood friends was part of a family where he and all of his brothers had "J" names and every time I thought about it, I found it insufferable. twenty years later I still do. it's dumb.

My brother and I both share the same initial, and it sometimes used to be a pain in the arse when we were both living at home and mail would be addressed to us using only our first initial and surname.

Also to the person saying it helps with hand-me-downs, it really doesn't. When we had to label our clothes, (for school or whatever), I was always [first initial][lastname], and my brother was [lastname][first initial].

There was no silly/cute reason as to why we both shared the same initial, it just worked out that way, and there were only the two of us.

So yeah. .... Jimothy Bobbitty Boo.

My mum wanted to have a standard birth in the hospital but I was turned around the wrong way. Since a feet first delivery isn't going to work too well I became a Caesarian birth.

Her epidural didn't work.

It's okay, though, they're largely calling him by his nickname "Quincy" (you can see how they get that from "Spurgeon Elliot")
