Love itIsaiah is a great name. I would have paired it with a more interesting middle name though.Grace and Isaiah make nice siblings. Taylor stick out IMO, but at least it's on a boy.

I like it a lot, very classic and handsome.

Oh, charming!I love Timothy, and the combo is so nice and soft. It goes very well with Grace and Taylor. And Elisabeth and Tim(othy). What a pretty group of names!

So handsome! [m]I think Isaiah and Timothy are such great, lovely Biblical classics. I'm surprised to see Isaiah on a celebrity's child--especially as a brother to Taylor--but I'm pleased nonetheless.Really, Grace and Taylor work fine, and so do Grace and Isaiah, but Grace, Taylor, and Isaiah are a really odd sibset. And I do love mismatching names. These are just weird, because they all have the strong A sound in them.

YawnNothing wrong with it, just dull, just like the the other two names.

Isaiah looks kind of silly, but as least it doesn't look as nerdy as Timothy... Okay combo, but not what I would have chosen.

thumbs upSeems to be a good sensible name and sounds good... I think I like that one best of the combos.

I dont like the combo really, actually out of the three children her only nice combo is Grace Elisabeth and thats a very safe choice anyway.
I've never been particularly fond of Isaiah, I have always preffered Isaias.

Boring..Isaiah, Grace and Taylor are nothing special. Taylor seems very out of place, though.

I like Isaiah

I'm not a huge fan of Isaiah and the name definitely doesn't match well with Timothy. In addition, it sticks out like a sore thumb among Grace and Taylor.

Names don't need to "match" their siblings.Names don't need to "match" their siblings. Each child is an individual and should be named accordingly.

Yes, I agree.But parents usually stick with similar naming styles when choosing names for subsequent children. Grace and Taylor are both refined so I was expecting something along the lines of Ethan, Andrew, Samuel, etc. Isaiah is not a name I would group into the same category as the other two but that's just me. Tim and Elisabeth are allowed to name their son whatever they please.To add to that, I know a family with three boys: William, Daniel, and James. All names, too me, are considered classics. About four years ago, the family welcomed their last child and first daughter. Based on the previous names they had chosen, I expected something along the lines of Elizabeth, Isabel, or Catherine. Instead, they chose Adisyn (this spelling). For me, it sticks out among her brothers' names.As you can see, William, Daniel, and James are all classics but each is different and unique to that child. It's not as if they were named Hayden, Aidan, and Caden.

Taylor refined?I've never thought of Taylor as being in any way refined as a given name. It's in the preppy trendy modern category.
Meanwhile, Isaiah is a pretty old school name and far classier than Taylor ever would be imo. Taylor's in no way refined as far as I'm concerned. Grace has some class, but is currently trendy. Isaiah's gone through phases, but is kind of common lately. Honestly, I'd think "Taylor" would be the one that doesn't really fit the pattern in this set. Then again, I'd also think of Ethan as trendy (and ugly imo... always makes me cringe for some reason) rather than classy, refined, etc. and I'm not sure how old or modern it is, but I never heard it on anyone except for 1 little boy (whose elder sister has a rare name too) until the last few years when there seemed to be this sudden boom of Ethans popping up everywhere.

Maybe not so much refined, as it is trendy, but I see that being more of the case if they had a daughter named Taylor. Given her older son's middle name, Grace and Thomas would've been a better pairing. I do prefer Isaiah to Taylor and know that it has plenty of history especially because of its biblical background. I just think that as a whole, the names aren't exactly ones I would see fitting in a sibling set. As I said though, it's not my baby and knowing what some celebrities name their children, it could've been 100x worse.Ethan and the others mentioned were just the first names to come to mind. I, too, don't care for it as, to me, it comes across as whiny.

I like it. Isaiah is one of my GPs, and the combo makes Timothy tolerable for me.

how boring and mismatchedI must admit I love my wacky celebrity baby names. It's like they can hear my guilty pleasures and act upon them. It's so much more fun to find out what they've picked when you know it's gonna be bizarre. I'll take Mowgli over Isaiah any day. And Isaiah, Grace and Taylor? I think Thomas goes better with Grace and Isaiah. BUT, that's just my opinion.

agreedTaylor is definitely out of place in that sib set.

Isaiah Timothy is a beautiful combo! It's great to see a normal name on a celebrity baby these days. Between Apple, Blanket, and Peaches, who knows what else they will come up with in the coming years. It's refreshing to see Isaiah Timothy on a baby boy. :) So cute!

I do like her.That *is* a good combo, especially for a celebrity. It also fits well in the sibset, although I've never been a fan of Taylor.

I don't like any of those kids' names, but at least they're decent names.
