    Amaie, what a beautiful family, your kids have such lovely names.

    I like Jonas/Ryan and Kyan the best.
    Emma/Eva/Lissa.
    So I'd choose between these.
    Wishing you all the best!

    Oh wow! Three times congratulations then! Based on the names of your other children, I'd go for these combinations:
    j/j/j:
    Jonas, Niels and Rick (Joas and Nick are also fine, but I'd go for Rick with Niels)
    m/m/m:
    Emma - Eva - Marie - Elin (with an i) - Merel - Laura - Dorien - Dana - Marthe - Bo I find all beautiful. The most beautiful combinations from these:
    Eva, Laura and Marthe
    Elin, Dana and Bo
    Emma, Marie and Dorien

    j/m/j:
    I would then go for:
    Jonas, Niels and Elin (all Scandinavian)

    m/j/m:
    Elin, Dana and Jonas

    Hi Anne,

    What beautiful names your kids have! I actually find the names you're considering for the triplets a bit less appealing. I'd go for two-syllable names. I'd also choose names that all start with a different letter. Plus, I'm not really a fan of names with a 'y' in them. So, keeping those things in mind, I'll have a little more of a think.

    For 3 boys:
    The 3 names starting with the same letter feel too similar to me. I think Jonas is nice. Ruwen is special, but also cool, I think. Noah is also beautiful. Joas and Jonas feel too similar, and Joas feels too similar to Boaz. So I'm left with Jonas, Noah, and Ruwen. Maybe Jonas a bit less because Jasper also starts with a J.

    I also think these boy names fit well: Collin, Dani, David, Idris, Isaac, Ivar, Lasse, Lester, Lucas, Merijn, Milan, Morris, Nolan, Odin, Olav, Otis, Pepijn, Quinten, Ravi, Revi, Roan, Sebas, Simon, Thomas, Tristan, Wessel.

    I think these combinations look the best with your kids:
    Tristan, Pepijn, and Simon
    Ravi, Olav, and Ivar
    Lester, Pepijn, and Morris

    For 3 girls:
    I'm a fan of Eva, Dana, Lisa, Laura, and Merel. So I'd pick 3 names from here, with a preference for Eva, Merel, and Dana. (I wouldn't combine Lisa and Laura, as that would mean two names starting with the same letter). Emma, Dana, and Lisa also look nice together.

    I think these names fit well too:
    Carice, Carlijn, Cato, Danaé, Diede, Donna, Ella, Imke, Iris, Kensi, Kirsten, Lara, Leah, Loïs, Lotte, Luna, Malin, Meike, Milou, Mirthe, Nienke, Nina, Nora, Nova, Pippa, Rava, Rhodé, Romée, Sarah, Silke, Sophie, Stella, Sterre, Thirza.

    A few nice combinations:
    Carlijn, Thirza, and Milou
    Ella, Loïs, and Cato
    Sophie, Mirthe, and Carice

    2 boys and 1 girl:
    From your names, I'd go for Noah, Ruwen, and Eva.
    But with the names I suggested, I think these combinations look nice:
    Ravi, Olav, and Cato
    Morris, Pepijn, and Thirza
    Tristan, Sophie, and David
    Tristan, Quinten, and Carlijn
    Lucas, David, and Sarah

    2 girls and 1 boy:
    From your names, I'd go for Eva, Lisa, and Noah.
    And with my names added:
    Sarah, Milou, and David
    Thirza, Mirthe, and Pepijn
    Ella, Cato, and Ravi
    Carlijn, Lester, and Milou
    Thirza, Pepijn, and Carice

    Good luck with finding the names for your triplets.

    Sorry, I’m gonna be a bit critical for a sec. I’d never go for 3 names starting with the same letter. With the initials you always get confusion (impossible if you don’t use a middle name, because then who do they mean?). And even with different second letters, you still get confusion because these aren’t always used in practice.

    Besides, I don’t really get all those different name lists, to be honest. If I were you, I’d just go with my favorite 3 boy names and 3 girl names. They’re 3 individuals, after all ;-)

    I wouldn’t go for Jonas and Joas. They’re nice, but they look too much like brother Boaz.

    From your list, I’d go for Noah and Rick. The rest I either don’t like or find too English compared to the siblings.

    And for girls: Emma, Lisa, Dana or Merel.

    Good luck!
