XP: Baby name question

I posted this on baby names, but wanted everyone's opinion here.
DH and I love the name Shannon. Our issue is that I'm not sure how good it sounds with our last name. Last name starts with N and rhymes with honey. Before we take it off the table completely, I wanted to ask everyone here if it was too much of a mouthful with all the N sounds. Say it out loud a few times and let me know what you think.
No we aren't pregnant...just trying next month :)

  • I don't think that is a problem. Shannon is a long name to learn to write and doesn't really have any nicknames. Of course we have a Josephine...

  • I think it's a few too many Ns together. What about in the middle spot where pretty much anything goes?

  • I don't think it would sound weird.
  • Like the name Shannon, but seems like too many N's.  If you really love it a lot, maybe use it as a middle name where it won't have to be said all the time like it would if it was a first name.
