Help[Opinions] Names from a kids book
I found a book for young kids about first experiences, showing different families experiencing things for the first time (such as going on holiday and to the doctors) to prepare children reading it. The book was published in 2005. These are the siblings from it, what do you think?
Ben and Bess
Jack, Jenny and Joey
Polly and Percy (twins)
Millie
Jake and Jessie
Lucy, Tom and Susie
Sam and Sophie
Ollie and Amber
Tim, Rosie and Lily
Nellie and Ned

A bit too alliterative, but delighted that they are all actual long established names and diminutives and there isn't a fad name in the bunch - with the possible exception of Amber which, to be fair, has been hanging around rather a long time.
Ben and Bess? Polly and Percy? Nellie and Ned?
Gag. Most of these sound obviously made up for a kiddie book, but one published in 1940.

I like:
Jenny, Polly, Lucy. I'd like Elizabeth more than Bess, Jessica more than Jessie, Susannah or Suzanne more than Susie, and Nellie because it's a family name (just Nellie, and on both sides of the family!)
Ben(jamin), Jack (John), Joseph, Percy, Tom (Thomas), Oliver and Tim(othy).

Polly & Percy are adorable. I also like Jake & Jessie as well as Sam & Sophie.
I like some of the other names separately not together (Ned, Ollie, Millie, Ben & Bess).

As sib sets:
Love - Millie, Lucy & Tom & Susie, Tim & Rosie & Lily,
Like - Polly & Percy (cute!), Sam & Sophie (okay)
Neutral - Ben & Bess (I love Bess, but they're very similar names), Jack & Jenny & Joey (Again, similar), Ollie & Amber (I keep changing my mind about whether I like this one or not)
Dislike - Jake & Jessie (just not a fan)
Hate - Nellie & Ned (too similar).
