The Duggar family of Arkansas

Former Arkansas state legislator Jim Bob Duggar and his wife Michelle have had nineteen children — 9 daughters and 10 sons. Here are their names, from oldest to youngest:

  1. Joshua, born in 1988
  2. Jana, 1990 (twin)
  3. John-David, 1990 (twin)
  4. Jill, 1991
  5. Jessa, 1992
  6. Jinger, 1993
  7. Joseph, 1995
  8. Josiah, 1996
  9. Joy-Anna, 1997
  10. Jedidiah, 1998 (twin)
  11. Jeremiah, 1998 (twin)
  12. Jason, 2000
  13. James, 2001
  14. Justin, 2002
  15. Jackson, 2004
  16. Johannah, 2005
  17. Jennifer, 2007
  18. Jordyn-Grace, 2008
  19. Josie, 2009

They certainly stuck with their chosen theme, didn’t they?

I’m a little sad they didn’t go with alphabetical names, though. This is one of the few modern families I know of that could potentially have ended up with 26 kids.
