Bradley, the first Bates Grandchild will celebrate his 10th birthday this year (b. October 29th 2014) by his birthday Kelly Jo and Gil will have welcomed their 32nd grandchild. 32 grandkids in ten years breaks down to 3.2 grandkids a year.

I wonder how many rhyming cousins we're going to get.

Kaci and Maci, Khloe and Zoey, Kade and Zade.

I won't be surprised if we get a rhyme or two for Jadon (the Bates gals strike me as the type to like Aiden names). And I could see Erin or Tori using Hadley (Bradley) for a girl.

When you have 20+ babies between you, there are bound to be similar names. Still, I find it sort of amusing that we've now got 3 pairs of rhymes.

Baby Girl Webster Name Predictions

Here we go again on the cutesy names! I am so excited to hear the name, but I’m thrilled to get to predict some more.

Previous Data

Going into this baby, what do we already know about the Webster’s naming style?

Allie, Lexi, and Zoey are all short and sweet names

All 3 first names have 2 syllables

Jane, Mae, and Joy are all common and short middles

They all have 1 syllable

Joy is Alyssa’s middle name

All and all we can determine that:

Shorter names are liked

Short middle names

First Names

The number in parenthesis is the chart placement for each name in 2019

Maisie (347) I adore this name and think it goes beautifully with the Webster girls

Sadie (87) Sweet and complete and short like the others

Lacey (657) Short and cute, just like the others

Middle Names

Jo Kelly Jo’s middle name

Lou cute and sweet

Rose cute, short, and one syllable

Final Predictions

My opinion on the top 5 most likely names for baby Webster!

Maisie Jo

Lacey Rose

Sadie Lou

Maisie Lou

Sadie Rose

All of these are combinations of the first and middle name choices that I think sound the best in combination with the names I think they are most likely to use. I hope you all enjoy!

Here’s to hoping the fundies get progressively further away from the craziness with each generation 🤞🏻

Although, I worry we’re giving Carlin too much credit for dancing at her wedding. It’s more than the rest, but she danced with her husband and her father, which isn’t quite the ‘hip-shakin on dance floor with a DJ’ that the fundies are so petrified of 🤔

It’s a Girl! ...again

Baby Webster was confirmed this morning to be a fourth daughter!

A name has not yet been released, but I’m going to prioritize their predictions over JoKen because Bates’ tend to prerelease names. Expect another cutsey name.

John & Alyssa Are Expecting!

John & Alyssa Webster are expecting their fourth child!

After health issues last year, Alyssa and John are expecting again. Baby Webster will join sisters Allie, Lexi, & Zoey! Name predictions will be up tomorrow, with extra Bates names that have been pushed back by the announcement!
