[Opinions] Sisters
I recently come up with fictional teenage sisters with last name Speight.
Their names are Corrie (UPD: Corinne) Speight, Susan (UPD: Anne or Ann) Speight and Desirae (UPD: Diane) Speight.
Share your opinions, I'm just curious.
UPD: OK, what about Corinne, Anne/Ann and Diane?

Corrine- love it, even if it’s a bit old sounding. On my PNL.
Anne/Ann- prefer Anne for this trio, all of their names end in e that way
Diane- don’t care for it personally but it seems to fit with how you name them so sure. What time period do they live in? If it’s today, I’d name them: Carina
Anna
Diana Otherwise, it fits.

Don’t care for Corrie on a girl and that spelling is ugly.Susan I especially don’t like and I vastly prefer Susanna (Without the h)And Desirae isn’t awful but Désirée / Desiree is much better. It’s very sexy and mature.

I don’t think these names really fit with each other. How about Corinne, Desiree, and Suzanne?

I agree with everyone else: the names are really mismatched, especially if they're meant to be full siblings and not from a mixed family, such as half-siblings, step-siblings or were each adopted.
Also I dislike the alliteration of Susan Speight

Their names are so random and so different from each other in style, origin and age that it's impossible to get a fix on them. They don't even sound like sisters. Corrie and Desiray, just maybe, but not 11-15; more like thirty at least? Susan sounds like their mother.

The era and personality of the parents is very tricky to pin down. I can’t imagine the same people naming all three.Susan is something that elegant, no-nonsense parents might have picked in the 50s/60s. Corrie’s parents might have had her in the late 70s, and would have been free spirits who didn’t always think things through. Desirae is very 80s and has a slightly brazen, adult vibe. If you want them to sound like sisters who are close in age, what aboutSusan, Corinne and Diana (60s)
Sasha, Corrie and Demi (70s)
Shannon, Courtney and Desirae (80s)
Susannah, Coralie and Dahlia (current)

I see you updated the names. All three are very nice, but I’m not sure I’d use Ann(e) and Diane together. It has a bit of a “Gog and Magog”, “clockwise and counterclockwise” feel.
