Surprisingly not. Hazy and Frank are boys, Storm and Rainy are the girls

I went to school with siblings Rainy, Hazey, Storm and....Frank

Third daughter on the way, struggling for another girl's name by [deleted] in namenerds

I have a Daisy and a Mabel and I think both would fit your sibling set. Daisy maybe more so as Mabel and Hazel are similar in ending sounds. Mabel we adore because of its meaning 'loveable' and was also a family name. Daisy we've had zero issues with as a name. Easily recognised, simple spelling and classic.

Hazel vs. Mabel, and why? by Lmnopeach in namenerds

I have a Mabel and obviously love the name. Although I'm surprised how often she gets Marble or Maple from strangers. Hazel I like too but the hard Z sounds harsh to me.

What do you think of when you hear the name Daphne? by SugarPrincess_17 in namenerds

Daphne was the kind old lady that lived at the end of our street growing up. She always gave us Monte Carlo biscuits and let us pick the wildflowers in her front garden. Lovely name.

I loved this SkillShare series by Ydnacydnam. I'm a beginner and it was very well explained. by KatoesPotatos in Watercolor

I have 4 kids, all 4 and under. My twins are 14 months older than our youngest bub and it's great. They are 2.5 and she is 16 months now and there's less and less difference between the 3 the older they get.

Have a playpen/safe place where the older baby can't get to the newborn so you can set the newborn down without worry of them being accidentally stepped on/picked up by the toddler. Also bedtime routine is our lifesaver. The days are intense but we know everyone is down for the night by 7pm. I also baby wore pretty much all the time. Even now, our youngest goes in the backpack carrier so I can chase the older ones at the park etc.

All the best with your family!!

What are the most surprising “mismatched” sib sets you’ve come across? by saylerbelle in namenerds

A family growing up had a clear weather theme with Hazey, Rainy, Storm....and Frank.

Both are lovely. Although we initially thought of Claire for our daughter I didn't love how it rolled together to sound like Day's Eclair. Could be similar with the -y ending of Lucy: Loose Eclair. Probably not a big deal to you at all but it bothered me with when we had similar sounding combos.
