History PlayingWith / OddNameOut

'''Basic Trope''': In a group with ThemeNaming, [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers one name doesn't fit]].

* '''Zig Zagged''': Everybody knows the four sisters as April, May, June and Alice. Later on, Alice's friends discover that her real name is July, or rather ''was'' July until she legally changed it to Alice. But then it turns out that the sisters also have second names with another set of ThemeNaming, meaning that Alice still doesn't break the trend. So she switches that name, too, but she took one without realizing that it went with the theme. Even later on, May turns out not to be related to the other three...

* '''Played For Laughs''': As a RunningGag, strangers assume that Alice's name is July. Alice [[TheDitz doesn't understand why]].
* '''Played For Drama''': It turns out that April, May, and June find the ThemeNaming to be embarrassing. Alice is spared the humiliation of being named after a month, which is a sign of ParentalFavoritism.
