Why do parents with lots of kids give their kids names that all start with the same letter?

My parents did that. They had 4 kids and each of us had names that started with "T". Then I changed mine

Cuz parents are as equally stupid as everyone else and do irrational things like everyone else. And put signs on the back of their cars that say “Baby On Board.” Like, that excuses your bullshit driving? Is there some other reason I need to know why you forgot to put your diaphragm in? Life doesn’t change because you posted a sign.

@DukeOfEarle those signs are to notify EMS responders that a baby is in the car, in case the car is ever in an accident and the seat has ejected, causing the baby become a projectile. So the EMS will know to search the area for a baby.

Ah OK. I thought it was to notify everyone that “This car will never ever go anywhere near the speed limit, except when you try to pass me. Then I will be a passive/aggressive bitch.” 😂

In my husband family all the boys names started with the same letter as their father and the girls were the same letter as mother. I thought it was weird.

I always thought it was to make sure they all had the same initials, so it'd be easier to reuse slightly personalized kid type stuff.
