Questions about First and last names???
| Mon, 01-28-2008 - 9:36pm |
My mother in law hates any name that me and my husband come up with that starts with R . Our last name begins with a R so she thinks having the first name starting with a R is horrible. What do you all think? We love the boys name Rylan , and for a girl Ryleigh.

I am also one who dislikes when first and last name start with the last letter. that's just a personal preference on my part. sometimes they sound OK, sometimes they don't sound so good, and sometimes they sound absolutely awful together.
you shouldn't be telling your MIL what you're thinking about naming the baby in the first place. it's best to test your names out on here, not with family members
My last name starts with an R too and I didn't like what the repeated R sounds like, so we didn't consider any R names.
I think it should be up to you and dh.
