Wow, that's a lot of typing. :) Thanks for listing those. Overall, those names are pretty similar to what we have here (Arkansas). Lots of Jacob, Jared, Tyler, Kaitlyn, Hannah and Nicholas.

I love the sibling sets of

Cecilia and Victoria
Benjamin, Andrew and Jacqueline
Reilly, Braden, Garrett and Kayla
Timothy, Brendan, Davis and Kent

Your DDs have beautiful names too.

Wow ... three Sams and two Rileys in ONE class?! There are definitely quite a few Samuels in her school (this was just the Kindergarteners and their sibs), but there seems to be even more Samanthas. There aren't any duplicates in her actual class of about 22 kids, but there are a few with similar names.

Sarah
Serafina
Sophia

Joshua
Joshuana (said Jo-shawn-a, though)
Josiah
Jessica
Jacy
Jarred

I'm not sure where all the little Jareds came from (I went to school with one or two years ago, but hadn't realized it was so popular now), but J names in general seem pretty popular, at least in her class. ;)

I was also a bit surprised there weren't more Aidans, Rileys, Kaitlyns, etc., but we seem to have a pretty large Irish population here so maybe we have more variety as far as the Irish names trend goes? Oh, and to answer your question, this is Pennsylvania, about an hour north of Philadelphia.

So Jared's not just a local favorite then? Interesting. ;)

Cecilia and Victoria -- I was so excited to see a little Cecilia! I agree, nice set.
Benjamin, Andrew and Jacqueline -- I liked this, until I looked back and realized it was really "Jacquelyn," which isn't quite as appealing IMO.
Reilly, Braden, Garrett and Kayla -- great set, except I think they dropped the second L out of "Reily" (he's in Kaitlyn's class, so I can't forget this one)
Timothy, Brendan, Davis and Kent -- this set intrigued me too. Love Timothy and Davis, Brendan's fine (I seem to hear it a lot around here) and Kent was really unexpected. I like them together.

Thanks for the list! I was surprised by: Cypress, Serafina, and the sibling set Siobhan and Thomas (I wonder if Siobhan has a nn - Si, maybe?)

Twins:
Garrick and Griffin - I love Griffin, but Garrick is too matchy and odd
Calver and Kelvin - again too matchy - I kind of like Calver though. I love the nn Cal :)

I was surprised by Cypress as well. I assumed it was a boy, possibly nn Cy, but I have no idea.

Serafina is in my dd's class, and also goes by Seri (sar-ee). Siobhan is in the AM class (same room/teacher), but I'm pretty sure she goes by her full name. That sib set wasn't that surprising to me, though, because there are a lot of Irish families in the area and the names tend to be either Celtic or traditional (for example, John Fitzgerald or Henry McCoy wouldn't be at all out of the ordinary, even if their sisters were Niamh and Aoife).

As to the twins, I was a bit disappointed at the matchy ones too! LOL I really don't hear ones like that very often in the area, but it happens. I actually like both Garrick and Griffin, but not together, and I thought the same thing about Calver (kind of interesting, like the possible nn Cal) until I saw his twin was Kelvin. Argh. ;)
