Putres and Nihal Yacoub of Melbourne, Australia, welcomed triplets in July. They now have a total of nine children, each with an M-name:
- Michael, 12 years old
- Marina, 10
- Martin, 9
- Marvin, 7
- Martina, 6
- Miguel, 4
- Mario, 1 month
- Mary, 1 month
- Mina, 1 month
Nihal said that she and her husband (both originally from Iraq) stuck with M-names simply because they started with Michael and Marina “and then kept going.”
I find it very interesting that they chose both Martin and Martina and also both Michael and Miguel.
So let’s say Nihal were going to have a 10th baby and she wanted you to choose the name. What one boy name and one girl name would you suggest?
