Default Michael Moore (FMFFFF)

Occupation(s) - Watch maker/finisher

Shoreditch area, London/Middlesex

Memorial inscription - if any

I would like some opinions about the baptisms of Michael and Elizabeth's children please. There are four baptisms to a Michael and Elizabeth Moore, watchmaker at St Luke's Old St, 1778, 1782, 1784 and 1788.
There are another three at St Leonard's Shoreditch to a Michael and Elisabeth(neighbouring parish) in 1776, 1780 and 1787. These do not state father's occ but give place of abode which is different each time. Would you agree that these are all the same family? There's no other obvious marriage between a Michael Moore and and Elizabeth in the right time frame. The earliest baptism is for a Joseph Michael which would fit with the possible father of Michael but am I trying too hard to make it work?
