Sara Foss of Derby, England has 13 children. Their names are:
- Patrick, 23
- Stephen, 13
- Malachai, 12
- Peppermint, 11
- Echo, 10
- Eli, 9
- Rogue, 8
- Frodo, 7
- Morpheus, 5
- Artemis, 4
- Blackbird, 3
- Baudelaire, 2
- Voorhees, 9 months
My first thought was: A mom of 13 has time to read Baudelaire? (And, if so, she really thought naming a child after him was an appropriate thing to do?)
But it seems like Sara is more the movie type. Rogue, Frodo, Morpheus and Voorhees’s names look like they come from X-Men (2000), The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), The Matrix Reloaded (2003) and Friday the 13th (2009). Perhaps Baudelaire’s name came from Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004)? The dates don’t quite match up, but that’s all I can think of.
And now, two questions for you: Sara’s having baby #14 in April. What do you think the name will be? She’s also eager to have twins one day. If she ever does, what should their names be?

Hi Nancy,
I just discovered your blog. Very interesting posts! Keep it up!
Wow that list is full of quite uncommon names. It’s like she went into a unique name phase after the second child!
OT: What do you think of the name Deanna? It’s on my list of potential baby names. =)
Dani
maybe she has a kindle
If she does, maybe she’ll name one of her kids after it. :)
