[Opinions] Reality show sextuplets
Sextuplets on a new reality show:
Victor and Digna Carpio are a Latino family from Queens, NY.
The sextuplets are 22 months old and there are four boys - Justin, Jezreel, Joel, and Jaden and two girls - Danella and Genesis. They also have a 7-year-old son Jhancarlos.
Wow, what a mismatched sibset! Not only do boys have a J theme and girls get nothing, they have 1980s dated (Justin), classic (Joel), trendy (Jaden), made-up (Danella), unusual (Genesis) and just plain weird (Jezreel, Jhancarlos).
Otherwise, I love Justin and like Victor and Carlos (would have liked Juan Carlos, but not sure if this is pronounced the same).

So, so sad...

Danelle and Danella may not be in the BtN board, but they've been around for a long time.
When you say "Latino", do you mean Latin America or Latin Europe? Is their 1st language Span. or another Latin language or are they a mix. That might explain the Jhan spelling in Jhancarlos.
Jezreel is an old Biblical name and may be unnusual or unexpected, but not as weird to me as Harper or Jackson as fns... and who says the names all have to "match"? There's something to be said for naming kids individually I admit making the boys all Js and the girls just random is odd and their name choices are different than mine would be, but not having them all match isn't a problem.

I don't think they have to match, I just find it unusual that the same person likes both Jaden and Justin for example (which are two totally different styles to me).
Since it said Latino in an article by an American I assume it means Latin America (I've never heard of Latino referring to Europe in America). I think you're thinking of Latinate?
