Alliterative Family

"So we have Blossom, Bubbles, and, hmmm, Buttercup because... it also begins with a B."

— Professor Utonium, The Powerpuff Girls Movie

A form of Theme Naming in which everyone in a family, or one generation of a family at the very least, all possess names with alliteration, that is, starting with the same letter or syllable. Bonus points if their last name also starts with the same letter. While obviously this can be expected to be intentional on the part of the writers, it can also be shown to be deliberate on the part of the characters. Such characters will usually be a little on the quirky side, if so.

May or may not also be an Alliterative Name, in which both first and last names have the same letter. The Theme Naming can be taken even further when these same letter names all have a theme within the same letter. When done In-Universe by the characters, can overlap with Who Names Their Kid "Dude"? and can lead to Rapid-Fire Name Guessing. Taken to extremes, this trope can make recitation of family members into a Tongue Twister.

The trope is fairly rare in films, where a common screenwriting trick is to avoid multiple names beginning with the same sound to make it easier for the audience to keep track.

Sub-trope of Theme Initials, in which several characters who may or may not be related share the same initials, and of Family Theme Naming, in which members of one family have related names which may or may not be alliterative.

Her mother and siblings all have names beginning with the letter W that evoke the colour white and can be associated with snow when combined with their surname: Willow ("snow willow", a real-life tree species), Winter ("winter snow"), and Whitley (either "snowy white glade" or "snow-white glade"). Weiss's father, Jacques (ne Gelé, making him literally "Jack Frost"), does not share the association because he married into the family, taking both Willow's name and her inheritance, the company founded by Willow's father, Nicholas (who is based on Saint Nicholas — Santa Claus).

Claire and John and Jane's fathers, the latter of whom are referred to as just "Dad".
• In I Want to Be a Cute Anime Girl, the three siblings' names start with ch, the C coming from their mother's first initial and the H from their father, and when Cheryl chooses her new name, she keeps with the theme to the relief of her parents.

• In Magience, Ariana has five children: Ren, Rin, Roan, Rune and Rayne.

• Pokémon World Tour: United has the various Officer Jennys in the setting. Each and every one of them has a first name starting with the letter A, such as Amelia, Amethyst, or Acantha.

At first it seems that Rose is the Odd Name Out, in keeping with her status as the family Black Sheep, but between Acts 1 and 2 it's revealed that she goes by her middle name and her actual first name is "Alouette".
