Legend has it that the three girls were not named for six months. Finally, Mrs. Grover Cleveland, whose husband was the President of the United States at that time, heard of the birth of the triplets, without names. So, Mrs. Cleveland suggested that the girls be named Faith, Hope and Charity. At last, the triplets were named and have carried those names throughout their lives.
