Huh.. Elina, I'll make a note of that. Although by that time, Elayne would be available once more, so maybe Elayne the Second.
I'll stick with the ELN for this line though. We'll see about Heidi and Hamida.
LOL, the pedigree thing reminded me of my grandparents on my mother's side, where all Boys had names that started with M like their father, and all girls had names that started with R like their mother. And trust me, there were enough of them to justify me using the word "All" :D

Dina:
LOL!
I know a few things who had children with the same first letter, but none of the cases I know is for more than 3 children in total.
I was also reminded of a very old movie called 7 brides for 7 brothers. The seven brother had biblical names following the alphabet. The first was Adam. I remember Benjamin, Caleb and Gideon. I do not remember the others.

Regenbogen:
Herodes... :-X

Fcrate:
That would be number 8, Regen :D
@Dina: 3 children don't justify a pattern. My grandmother used to chastise my uncle's wife for stopping after 4. (As the above joke hints, Egyptian mothers in law are horrible) :D

Yes, after Gideon ;)
One of my sisters-in-law told me after my second child's birth, that in this family it is custom to give birth to at least 3 children. I wanted 3 kids already without her telling me, lol, but fate intervened. But it is rare here to have more than 3 kids. Some people I know have 4 or 5. One family in our street has 6 and the old doctor of the village has 12. But this is the exception.
Maybe if I had started earlier, but I was already 30, when my first child was born and my pregnancies were more of the life threatening kind for both me and the babies, so we didn't risk a third one and are just glad that we have two healthy girls. No matter what the family says.
