I don't care for the girl's names, especially with the spelling of Mackenzie and it's use on a girl, but I wouldn't say it was a strange set. They sound like a pretty average, believable set.

I like Callum and Jacob

I like Calum. Piper is okay. I dislike Jacob and McKenzie. They go well together, except for Jacob which doesn’t really seem to fit in.

They don't strike me as strange. I hate McKenzie and Piper, Jacob is okay but too common, and I love Calum but prefer the spelling Callum.

Why are they strange? They're all fairly common names and popular around the same time.McKenzie and Piper are both surnames popular on girls, and Calum and Jacob are both widely used. Although Calum does feel more 1990s, I know baby Calums too. Their brothers tend to be Jake rather than Jacob though.

I think it’s more that I find them odd as a set rather than odd.
